Two white mk3 coupes for the breaking

Featured Replies

Breaking a J reg and an L reg mk3 coupe. Both alpine white. Both done over 100k

Both could be saved with a fair bit of work but I neither have the time nor the inclination to put them back on the road. Have about 5 other projects on the go at the min!

J reg

Was a GT converted 1.3 SPI. Bought to break for parts. Has a rotten battery tray and the floor has gone under the driver's seat (welds broken) The sills have taken a bashing from the car being slammed. Even the fuel tank had a scuff on it.

This car's pretty much fully stripped bar body panels/glass so I don't have a lot to sell off it. Mostly odds and ends like cables, switches, interior trims etc. Panels all seem ok bar the tailgate which has rust in the usual places. No engine/drivetrain/suspension/wiring to speak of off this car, though I do have some suspension parts that I need to sort through and will be advertising at a later date.

Doesn't have GT arch kit or rear axle as it was a conversion. rubbing strips were also removed

Pics of front end. Wings are a little scabby, doors are not perfect but nothing terrible either. Bonnet is good, as is the one on the other car.

L reg

Another GT converted 1.3 SPI. This one is in better condition overall but the battery tray is in a pretty bad way (worse than the J reg and worse than any Spanish mk2 I've had) I did buy this one to do up and sell on but I've ended up needing the engine for one of my other cars. I'd be tempted to put this back to standard and sell on that way if I had more time but I'd need to buy another car to break to do that as it currently needs engine/gearbox/brakes/exhaust/interior. If you have a crash damaged 1.3 SPI mk3 that you want rid of. I may still save this car but the parts I've listed are for sale either way. Could also sell the rolling shell if anyone wants it for scrap value.

What's left in there at the moment

Black carpets £15

G40 door cards £25

Early spec rev counter clocks - £20

Black parcel shelf £10

Grey parcel shelf £5

Parcel shelf supports - I have 2 or 3 sets of these with unbroken hinges £offers buy something and if you want some of these you can have them for free!

false floor install for an amp - £10 ono I honestly don't know what it's worth. Trimmed in dark grey.

Late spec tinted rear lights £30 (the ones that people say are G40 ones)

GT steering wheel £free (exchange). I will swap a GT steering wheel for your pov spec one. Has had the horn wiring repaired and it is a bit rough to the touch but better than a pov spec one!

misc

3 sets of front / coupe rear bumpers. Free to collect, none are perfect. If someone doesn't take them they will be going to the scrap yard when the cars do.

Few sets of headlights/orange indicators.

Front grille, engine bay ancillaries, rear badges etc etc best off just asking me and I'll see what I've got.

Lots of plain side glass. At least a couple of sets. Some etched, some not. Some bonded quarters, some not. Offers!

I will upload some pics at some point, probably towards the end of the week.

How muchous for a passenger side wing? My hillclimb car is missing it's one... :o

  • Author

I guess you'll want that posting? I will check first that it's worth me removing it. Don't think there's any rot but might not be rust-free. Will make sure it's part of the photos I will take this week :)

Would you cut the handbrake out and metal for a mk1 conversion? And also got a 5 speed gear linkage?

Would have to post these two bits though

  • Author

Those particular bits I don't mind posting. I've posted bumpers in the past! (which I do mind!) I will send you a pic so you can tell me how much you want me to cut out of the floor.

Alright bud, I'm after door cards for my 1982 polo classic gt will g40 ones fit? If so how much to post them to Nottingham? Cheers,

Ant

If its easier to text me then my number is 07591670971

its a saloon :-)

Pics of decent one body work etc? Looking for two good condition doors :)

I know Karl's after a pair of doors and a bonnet, but they have to be up to his discerning eye ;) He's on his holidays at the minute though.

  • Author

I've mentioned to Karl a few times I have these cars! but I know he's been 'otherwise occupied' recently ;)

G40 doorcards in a mk2, yeah they can be 'made' to fit. You have to use the mk3 door window rubbers, fixings etc and there are clearance issues with the mk2 dashboard, but rears go in the same. If I were you I'd look for some coupe S ones if you're after dark coloured items.

Think I should have pics up by Saturday.

Let me know if theres anything up to his standards and we"ll sort something out

dont suppose you have a black headliner?

  • Author

Both not black sir.

Any chance you have the bit of trim that covers the fron seatbelt front anchor point?

  • Author

The little circle thing? I probably do. I need to do inventory on all of the little bits of mk3 stuff I've got and get back to you.

how much for an aerial posted?

also how much for doorcards posted?

Pm'd regarding doors :)

Thinking about the bonnet too dude if its still there when I head up there

Thats the one. Also if you have the rectangular sliding bit on the seatbelt that it clips to

Think the aerials are both seized and I don't really fancy posting the cards...you're only in cheshire, ain't so far...

That what clips to? do you have a pic?

By the looks of it mine has snapped from the half circle piece. I'm assuming they're supposed to be joined.

Not uncommon for that to happen, I'll have a look. But I think I will have to sell you the whole seatbelt as I don't think it comes off.

Do you still have the doors and where are you located?
