Hey
I'm getting a new motor built so mine will be up for sale as soon as the new one is ready to go in.
Its a 1641cc engine built on a brand new case with all new parts, Its got a 110 cam, lightened flywheel and is running new Webber 40s at the moment. Its got the pertronix flamethrower electronic ignition kit. It starts first time every time and iv never had any trouble with it.
The engine will not have covered more than 5000 miles since it was built, It originally came with Webber 36 icts (which i still have), I put the brand new 40s on about about 500 miles ago.
The grearbox was new with the engine, Its a swing axle bug box built by cog box, Its basically standard, i think it has a slightly longer last gear, in my car will cruise at 70 at about 3500 rpm.
The engine should be out with in the month so if anyone is interested please let me know, as the money will be going straight into the new motor.
Iv been told that with the box and both sets of Webber's included its worth around £1,700 but any sensible offers are welcome.
Mike

keredewor - will do man, thanks
67looker - thanks man. sounds good but the new 2007cc Fuel injected turbo (garret t2) sounds even better haha.
Alexdundee - it’s a swing axle box, Iv fitted a camber compensator and it handles very nicely. It’s definitely up for sale now. As I said the engine will be out within the month. The only reason its not out now its because I use the bug everyday. It was built by Andy hick (of Colin hick motor services) so I will get it serviced and checked over by him before it comes out. If you want it let me know.
