Wanted Mint gt turbo phase 2 shell wanted

[Davidmog99]

Thanks for the above advice, im either going to repair my shell or buy the new, I really want a legit gt turbo.
I know its going to be a labour of love, but thats the whole point!

It's possibly the only unused shell left in the world, so we'll be looking for a strong price.... perfect for the 'perfection' build.

Well that came out of nowhere!

I priced a Clio V6 from Renault the other day. LOL. OK then.

As for Value, well, if you put that out for bids I reckon you'd be headed way north of 2.5k for a proper GTT shell. Waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay north.

It would have to be...a reshell is a HUGE task. You'd likely have to source other additional shell bits that don't come with the actual shell too. Strengthening bits and the like.

It's tucked away at the end of the shed so I won't be able to get pictures for ages. To be honest, I won't be able to get it out for at least another 6 months.
I need to straighten my crashed cup car, and I'm going to use the brand new shell as a reference when building the jig. So it may not be for sale for a while unfortunately.
This is the other one that was bought at the same time (bought the last two direct from Renault). It was build into the white cup car. shown below - the first 'shakedown' and then featured in a group test that we provided the cars for.
We also have that cup car in storage too - which needs to be sold at some point. It must be the cleanest/newest one in existence that has some racing history.

Still got some awesome stuff stashed away @Sam Fish did all the coupe parts sell? Must be a good 6 years since i bought the cup rims from you?

 

[Sam Fish]

I sold pretty much everything unfortunately. I bought some bits from Dave Clark, but wish I had a bit more.
I only really have enough for my cup car.
I'm going to have to use the shell and maybe some other bits as leverage to get some good phase 1 kit at this stage (arches, grill, bumpers etc).... Swapping rare bits seems to be the only way to get them now!
So the shell will get first dibs to anybody who can supply top condition phase 1 kit in part exchange!
We'll be aiming for close to £10,000 for the white cup car though. Its almost as new, and will be ready for the track. I think it finished 4th or 5th in the reunion race with Jim Edwards snr driving - a previous gtturbo champion.

That actually seems realistic, with the recent crazy price increases.

Is the new shell a LHD? or RHD?

 

[Sam Fish]

It's Rhd.
Could be worth more in Lhd, who knows.
