Default V8 being broken on the Bay.

Browsing the Bay and came across a V8 260 being broken. Other parts are mixed in with all his other cars parts.

333112757937

Seems a shame as thought these were very savable and worth more as a complete car unless wrecked in an accident.

Looks to be #167 that is being broken an Xpower Grey pre-facelift example. Shame another one less on the roads.

Thread moved to V8 forum BTW

I enquired about the shell from this one, unfortunately it had already been scrapped.

Saw this recently and had to chuckle. Stick '260' to it and think it is worth more. Can buy new for similar money. (although no calipers with new, but could assume that you would have them already )
