I will be meeting Pinhead to collect my goodies, so I can easily pick it up. However, I am sure Pinhead would be ok sending the stuff to you anyway. I have dealt with both of you in the past and are both trustworthy, so I am sure there will not be any issues....
The problem is that I don't know of any other cheap parcel company anymore.......

I'd keep the wheels if I were you, as much as I want them I don't think I could ever justify offering you enough for them!

Cool

This car does look good and it is sometimes worth trying to sell the entire car even with its faults to some person who knows how to change the head or who happens to have a spare engine. It won't cost you anything to list the car first and if it does not sell then you can break it.
I agree it is not worth paying a garage to repair it because it could turn out to be expensive and it is always difficult to figure out what this type of car would sell for. A car that has a different engine fitted can be sold, but the replacement engine must look real clean and not just something thrown in from a scrap yard, although a lot of buyers won't notice.

i just bought the car from an auction site so i doubt it will sell for more than i paid
