Default 480 wanted any condition

480 wanted any condition but must be cheap and local.
car is for a project so dont want a mint one to rip a part.
Saying that I would swap a n reg 2.5 850 volvo for a decent 480 "turbo would be nice",so if you have a mot failed one or a decent one to swap let me know.
Must be local to birmingham either way.
Please pm me,even if you know of any local.

Will swap this

http://birmingham.gumtree.com/birmin.../43142090.html

For a 480 in similar condition,Infact in decent condition as my mazda has been seriously looked after except where weathers got to the body work,got grands worth of receipts,full history to 95 and only has 107 now,has tax and mot,just needs middle section exhaust for mot (you could weld it),it is a very quick v6 and I doubt any thing could touch it in this day and age handling wise.I would love to have this as a rear wheel drive but these with history like this are really getting un heard of,get the exhaust done and sort paint work and I guarantee it will pull a minimum of a grand on ebay.

Or will swap a N reg 850 2.5 which needs tyres for mot for a decent 480.
480 turbo would be nice,dont care if head gasket or any thing has gone,on any 480 for that matter as I plan on a engine conversion.
wouldnt mind rebuilding a 480T IF THE GASKET/TURBO or any thing was gone just to see what it was like but even then I would most likely take it out as I'm aiming for a rear wheel drived 200+bhp 480.

Come on,some one must have one,dont car if its got no mot or bits missing,just want to basicle strip it and build it up as new but rear wheel drive t5 style.

If none of my cars are worth a straight swap for a half decent 480 I would be shocked,I'm thinking I should be asking for some money too but I'm not as I want to get this project rolling.
