Possible to have too many car parts laying around?

[Muncher]

Hmmm, running out of places to put them now!

2x Fronts on NA Alloys = Tyres like slicks
2x Rear NA alloys = Tyres looking very dead but probably still legal
4x VXT Alloys with Very good tyres
1x Brand new rear with puncture


The plan is to refurbish all 3 sets of alloys I have over the summer myself and maybe lose one or 2 sets and replace them with some OZ wheels.

Will provide a guide on how to do it, it's entirely possible to get them back to better than brand new condition for about £10-15 per set

Am picking up parts at an alarming rate!

HID kits, 4x various Lotus hardtops and a whole host of other random bits around the house!

That's nothing :/ You should see all the parts lying around in my garage and shed!

I have 9 spare alloys, 2 spare steelies, and god knows how much in the way of other bits and pieces - including doors, engines, interiors etc.

why so many lotus hard tops? do they fit the VX? or are you doing them up to sell on for a profit?

Nope, they don't fit the VX (although the S2 short tail is pretty similar) I am selling them super cheap Currently have one for every Lotus type sitting here, S1, S2 longtail, S2 Short tail, VX

I cleaned my garage the other week, Threw away 20 tyres, 16 of which had wheels too

Since getting rid of the MR2 I've been trying to clear out my garage, most of my old bits have been sold on the forums already, only got the original airbox, cat and some spare door cards to get rid of now and my garage will be ready for my new car

 

[commited]

I have a ridiculous amounts of parts... had a whole spare car until recently

Wheels wise I have 2 full set of alloys with crap tyres, another set with great tyres (but one alloys is smashed to pieces) & 6 steelies all with good tyres. I'm not very popular

 

[ste_bla]

4 x Chinq Alloys with 4mm tyres
6 x Steelies all with more than 5mm 165/80/R13 I think
1 x Escort Radiator
1 x 1.8 Ford Diesel Engine
2 x Alternators
3 x Batteries
4 x Jump leads

And then I gave up cleaning up the garage so what else? who knows

Hmm.

- 2 Subframes
- 4 full sets of wheels
- 8 shock absorbers
- 1 rear axle
- 2 gearboxes
- 2 engines (a 4 and an 8)
- Loads of ancilleries like alternators, few radiators
- Few oil coolers
- 1 full interior
- 1 propshaft
- Load of random brake bits

Think that's the lot at the moment
