Ive genuinely got one.
Im closer to getting to it. I sold one of my other cars (not a Piazza) unfixed yesterday.

Nah Jackaroo.
Want the funds to put into the KB, rego etc, ive got nearly all of the parts i need to do it.
I bought wheels and tyres for the KB. Well the back tyres, i havent got fronts yet, not sure what size to run, i dont think the 29" high ones will fit on the front. lol. Hell i dont even think they will fit on the back without some massaging. It might be a case of custom hubs for the front yet too, the offset of the rims isnt quite right.
The rims are 16x7 and are genuine Isuzu (not off a local model that ive seen)
The tyres are 245/70/16. They are Silverstone hwy somethings, meant for a Toorak tractor. Ive got a pair of 235/60/16's here that i might use instead. Probably 215/60's or even 55's on the front.

I'm looking for just the motor. Even a dead one. Planning to (long term) have it rebuilt and transplanted into my current one. Got a dead one Bob?

Ive got a dead one here minus manifolds if your interested? Dropped the timing belt and bent the valves, thats all i know - none of which would matter if your rebuilding it to become something angry

Yep, it still runs, just. Chugs and clunks and carys on and pumps all the oil out. Not sure whats up with it. Havent had a good look. Same as Nick, if i was selling it it would be a bare motor.
Got a Shuttle bottom end as well. no head.

Nick/Bob. How much do you guys want for it?

Im asking 200 for mine. Its complete minus EFI and turbo gear, so its still got the Piazza sump etc.
If i were you, [whichever engine you got], id get a hold of a Piazza sump and manifolds etc. That way you can sell your engine thats in the car now for 1500, and drop the new one in. Money made, not much lost.

The one he has in there now has been rebuilt recently so i dont see why he wouldnt get 1500 for it. Its a running, complete engine.
