Guy is currently probing the demand and should decide by the end of the week if he will break it for parts.

Thats my old fto

was it in bad shape? If not, then maybe it could find a good home with someone on this site?

Needs a new altenator, a patch of rust cutting out and welding, and a bit of paintwork..

Also my bro saw you in the red fto today in town, said its mint

[Bartpabicz]

thanks mate, good to know there are other club members "on the streets" in Cork! Car needs some work with brakes, engine and full underseal but fortunately it doesn't show outside

Come to think about it, I've seen a navy blue FTO parked on St Patrick's street a while ago (like a month or so). Know anybody from the club that might be riding it?

[richardc9052]

nope. there are quite a few people with ftos in the city... i see a silver one pass my house nearly every sunday evening...

[Bartpabicz]

a short update: that guy finally decided to break it for parts, so they are supposedly available. From what I know the suspension is gone though (along with my blasted long dogbone!).

Any nice bits in there Rich?

[StewyD32]

Car was all standard if i remember correctly. T'was and automatic which he forgets to mention in case anyone wants manual parts

[StewyD32]

He has it back up for sale again lol just now

[Bartpabicz]

reckon it's worth 600?

[StewyD32]

No tax no nct and the body work is peeling so no. I didn't have a good look at it when Richie had it so he can tell ya But then again I wouldn't buy a Automatic anyway.

[richardc9052]

it could be a handy track car if you replace the altenator.. unless he has already fixed that (Mivec didnt kick in sometimes)

[StewyD32]

Now sold

[richardc9052]

hmmm i wonder who bought it?
