I miss the old RS and I would like to own another one some day, but at the moment I need to get rid of some parts I have laying around.

From memory here is what I have. No prices here but if people are interested, PM me (with an offer if you like?) and I will get back to you ASAP. I live in Prospect, so it's reasonably central to Adelaide city.

I have;

- 1 x 32/36 weber with manifold. Was working when removed.
- 1 x 38/38 DG'XX' weber (I can't remember the designation... DGAS maybe?). It was on my RS with GRP 1 valves, FR32 Cam, ported/polished head and was jetted to suit. Ran well. Only removed to fit twin 45's when I fitted the RL31 Cam. Upon last inspection it was a bit furry with corrosion but nothing detremental to the operation of the carby (I like to be honest about the condition of parts, I am not trying to flog a f***ed carby)
- 1 x 3.77:1 diff centre only. Was in good working order when removed (I am 90% sure it is 3.77:1. If you want clarification I will go check)
- 4.44 crown wheel ONLY. Probably of no use to anyone though...
- 1 x pair of front 1/4 bumpers. Could do with a bit of fibreglass repair to the indicator mounting points.
- 1 x pair RS2000 rear bumper ends painted red. Look good on a standard Escort too. Just need to 'modify' the bumper to my knowledge.
- 1 x bottle of Polish Absinthe
- 2 x console? pieces.... It's where the ashtray mounts. One of them I had filed out and fit a qty 3 or 4 (can't remember atm) 50mm gauge panel in there. Paint is chipped off the ally, but a quick sand and a lick of paint could fix. The other is standard from memory (these are both more of a give-away item).
- 1 x pair of 2" lowering blocks.
- 1 x RS2000 factory oil fitting for the block. No lines or gauge, just the fitting that screws into the engine block.
- I think I also have a gearstick somewhere...

I had previously fitted a 350 Holley to an Escort. I have the adapter plate (32/36 to 350 Holley) and the linkages I made for it in a bag. It worked fine, just a home made job is all. May throw it in for free with the sale of other goods if anyone is interested?

If there is some interest in the above goods I will dig them out of the shed. I really don't have a lot of time between work and Uni but I will try to get back to anyone ASAP ok. I don't expect to make a killing of these parts, but I'm not stupid either. I just don't have the space or more importantly the time anymore.

Alternatively if you have some MOPAR goods you want to swap, I'm keen
OR
If you know how to make a 2.0L DOHC 8V Scorpio engined 1998 Ford Transit go faster we can work out a deal

By the way, I do not have the time to pack and send this stuff so it is strictly pick-up only.

Thanks

OK Thanks for the emails people. Looks like people actually want this stuff. Ill upload some photos of things like the dash area with the panel I made, carby's, 1/4 bumpers and then people can make up their mind if they want them.

Some corrections and some additional parts;

-The lowering blocks are 1.5" not 2"
-The front 1/4 bumpers aren't cracked. It is the bracket on the indicator itself thats broken
-I have some valve springs. They were with my original cam but I do not the brand etc
-I have some DCOE weber parts. Anyone interested? Aux Venturi's, air correctors, jets, emulsion tubes...
-38/38 weber is gone. Had a good offer.

I will also put up what I think is a reasonable price for the parts tomorrow (21/01). I don't really have the time to be replying to a heap of emails from different people regarding prices. I would prefer an email that says SOLD or an offer and I can say IT'S YOURS, COME PICK IT UP.


Sundowner - I live in Prospect. It's near North Adelaide.

Samb0_82 - Absinthe is gone mate :)


Thanks

If you don't agree with the prices... Let me know what's good for you. I just don't like getting emails with 'I don't know how much they're worth'. All this stuff has been sitting in my shed for at least 5 years now so I'm not too fussed if it sells or not.

- 1 x 32/36 weber with manifold. Was working when removed $140.

- 1 x Gearstick (used but looks OK. Good to work out your short shift conversion with) $30

- 1 x 3.77:1 diff centre only. Was in good working order when removed. $160

- 4.44 crown wheel ONLY. Probably of no use to anyone though... $FREE

- 1 x pair of front 1/4 bumpers. Fibreglass good and no cracks, just the mount on the indicator on one side is broken. One side could do with some more resin to strengthen one of the mounting hole's but it is not essential. Indicators are free, you're paying for the bumpers. $50

- 1 x pair RS2000 rear bumper ends painted red. $150

- 2 x console? pieces.... It's where the ashtray mounts. One of them I had filed out and fit a QTY 3 50mm gauge panel in there plus qty 3 standard switches. Paint is chipped off the ally, but a quick sand and a lick of paint could fix. The other is standard (these are both more of a give-away item) $FREE with another purchase

- 1 x pair of 1.5" lowering blocks $50

- 1 x RS2000 factory oil fitting for the block. No lines or gauge, just the fitting that screws into the engine block $20? Cost me $30 to get one made when I misplaced this one

- Valve springs $20

- Emulsion tubes $20 a set. I have F15's and F57's

- Auxilary venturies numbered 3.5 $50 (they are about $40 ea new from memory)

I am still yet to find the air correctors and jets.

Photos will be later tonight. It's after 2am and I need some sleep now.

I also have two sets of sidedraft Solex carbies. One set is from a 2T-G TA22 Celica and the other is from an 18RG RA23 Celica. Are they of interest to anyone?


I found a big hill for the van smiley_666 :) It made it to 112kmh
