Looks like he's in Ken's vicinity being in Huddersfield. Sounds like he's got LOADS of bits.....

Comes up as Barnsley, so most likely somewhere near Dean. Wish it was local to me, I'd have them like a shot.

It's the guy who's posted the ad that's in Barnsley......Mirfield is deffo closer to 'Uddersfield, and he says the cars are in Mirfield.
Still in Ken Territory methinks! ( That said, I'm only 40 mins from Hudds myself!)

I've spoken with this chap before sometime last year, i believe he is an ex-citroen mechanic (now retired).

Smokes lots, because enough's enough already!

Far too many BX's, a bus, an ambulance a few trucks, not enough time and never enough cash...

Who cares, ask him if he has a daughter anyway :lol:


Back o/t (it was my new year's resolution but you may have noticed it crashed!) do you fancy taking these BXs on Dean?

i've had a look at the cars

the tzd i'll be picking up later in the week

it hadn't run for a bit and the battery was allmost flat but it started first go

the body has seen better days but almost all the bits are there

it'll make a good spares car or a work inprogress

Image

the other is a meteor it's grey with a hint of green (don't know the colour name)
Image


it needs a good clean and some sorting

the sunroof needs to come out to fix a leak and for a bit of work on the

cables

(he has the spare parts for it)
Image

Image

the mileage reads 78000 miles (he says that it's genuine)

Image

it's all there and needs putting back together but it hasn't runn for a while
Image

Image

Image


he has loads of other spares and may be going to wood green next month so he can clear some space in his garage

if anybody wants me to ask about any parts that they might want i'll be happy to ask





Dean sorry to say but it's not be the same Pete turton that you knew

(so the daughter is still out of reach):P
