Quick update

Not much to add really - the rear axle sold on the bay and was collected yesterday. Then wheels didn't sell in original auction which ended a week ago, but I thought I'd relist on Friday night - went to do the feedback for axle man and found wheels had sold too. Brill

Was chatting to Alan who bought the axle and he asked what steering column I was using; so I told him RX8 and did he want the Scimitar one (along with old fuel tank and brake servo & m/c) as it'll all be going in the bin. He did and gave me £35 which was very generous as I didn't actually want anything for them.

Still, £230 for engine, £180 for axle and other bits, £100 for wheels which brings Scimitar cost down to £240, plus £300 for RX8 so £540 so far on the project. Have a few other bits to sell like Scim front suspension and various RX8 panels.

Anyway, I'm currently removing front suspension and figuring out how to fit new subframes to Scimitar chassis.

Hopefully more next week.
