(Gone to crusher)Caged, logbooked NB8C shell

Postby greenMachine » Sat Jun 30, 2018 7:46 pm

The part-out has reached the stage where the main bit left is the shell.

Car is a JDM year 2000 NB8C, with a cage and a CAMS logbook. The rear garnish and bootlid have been modified, the bonnet needs replacing (went over the windscreen) but is suitable for testing. It will be sold with the dash assembly (no cluster), and front and rear subframes, pedals, master cylinders. $1500 ono. As anyone who has had a car caged will know, this is good value for someone wanting to start a build from scratch. As a jap import, it is not registerable.

Some suspension may be available if required. Some wiring may be available, alternatively wiring from another NB8B or NB8A may be available. Other parts may also be available, including racks, PS pumps, brakes etc. Price negotiable with these.

The hardtop is also available. This has been trimmed to fit the cage, and has no latches. Prefer to sell with the car - $2000 (shell+hardtop.)

PMs please.

Wow :shock: :mrgreen:
If you had access to a car like this, would you take it back right away? Neither would I.

Any love for a caged, logbooked NB8C shell?

Postby greenMachine » Mon Jan 28, 2019 10:18 pm

No love for this?

I can do a deal on it as-is, or the rolling chassis, stock brakes, ABS. Lots of stuff available from the racecar and the NB8B I parted out, I am happy to talk turkey on deals.

Right now I am cleaning out the interior, as it has been a storeroom for lots of crap.

When that is done, I will advertise the hardtop for sale, and when that goes, the metalwork goes to the recyclers. Don't let that happen, there is too much value in the cage/shell to see it dumped, but I am not going to leave it cluttering up my yard forever.

The road was bit longer than expected - life intervened but I am now back on the job.

Doors (with glass, winders and locks/keys), front guards, headlights/rear lights, subframes, front clip, radiator ducting available, hardtop will be advertised separately. The rest is ready for the scrapyard/recycler, as soon as I cut up the cage.

The tyre kickers have had their fun, and now the hardtop is gone, this is the final call …
