Merkur XR4Ti Package - 5 cars & gobs of parts in FL Greets all! Hate to do this but we all know the story, too much project too little time. Don't really want to part with these as it's been a long time goal but... Here's what I've got: 1 shell no engine, 2 cars with bad engines (head gasket) and 2 "ran when parked". White, gold, burgundy, silver and blue all with sunroof. Gobs of parts include extra engine, manifolds, T5 bell, RS intercoolers OEM, aluminum aftermarket RS rad, Contour SVT wheels, Euro headlights (two sets), Euro clusters, Factory shop manual, BAT short shift for T9, various interior bits and more. I've got a couple titles, will bill of sale everything. Make me an offer, I'll help deliver within reason. And don't jerk me around, everything's within 5 miles of the highest-paying local scrap yard. I'll get some pics posted shortly...

Pretty neat stuff!!! If I can find a BAT shifter at a good price, I would be interested, but a stock T-9 shifter would be OK for now. I'm down to the last few bits and pieces to get this thing running for Spring so maybe Joe or one of the others have a shifter for an old builder and will answer the post. Thanks again for your help.

Joe,
Not sure what a BAT short shift for a T-9 is, but I have a T-9 going in a Locost Seven with a 2.3 Ford
that needs a shift mech/lever. How much would a stock or BAT short shift one be? Should fit in a $5 postal box? Thanks.

look up BATInc (British American Transfer) they have it listed in their catelog. I have one for my T9 if you keep the t9 its a good upgrade.]]> mothra Buy, Sell & Trade Wed, 19 Dec 2012 07:33:51 -0600 https://www.rallyanarchy.com/phorum/read.php?7,73326,74806#msg-74806 Re: Merkur XR4Ti Package - 5 cars & gobs of parts in FL https://www.rallyanarchy.com/phorum/read.php?7,73326,74806#msg-74806 Not sure what a BAT short shift for a T-9 is, but I have a T-9 going in a Locost Seven with a 2.3 Ford

Could I trouble you for the bolts that hold the steering rack in place? The zf rack if theres a difference.

Thanks brody.

They're just boring M10 bolts doooooood. Just get some shit that's long enough.
Quit trolling me you banned troll you. B)-
What about a 60 trim t3 comp wheel or just a nice CHRA? Didnt the stickshifts have them?

The only difference in the various Mooseangst, Thunderchicken and Xratty turbos is early Mooseangst manual got a .63 a/r turbine housing. All others were .48 a/r including later post '85..

That was OPEM. now? who knows. The compressor wheel, :
409096-0013 Compressor wheel was same on all and same as YB cossie 4x4..

Seriously, if the scrapper will give you $3k for five XR4s, I'd take all the good stuff off, take the money and eBay the rest.

You need to make some packages. Look at each car, what parts it does or doesn't have, whether it's a rot box parts machine or some tires and brakes from being roadworthy. With intercoolers and Euro lights you may have a way to make a couple of $1,500 cars there, even as "projects" with the right bits...or not.

If I had money and space, I'd hire my neighbor to haul them up in one of his big rigs, or grab my dad's F350 KING RANCH CREW CAB DUALLY 4X4 POWERSTROKE DIESEL truck (you have to shout that like you're at a NASCAR race) and rack some miles if they weren't rusty. But I need projects like a hole in the head.

If you have a couple crusty runners, they'd likely sell for $300+ to southern LeMons teams.

There ain't no magic bullet for liquidating these and making money. Trust me, been there, done that, made a tiny fortune out of a small one.]]> fiasco Buy, Sell & Trade Mon, 17 Dec 2012 18:22:57 -0600 https://www.rallyanarchy.com/phorum/read.php?7,73326,74712#msg-74712 Re: Merkur XR4Ti Package - 5 cars & gobs of parts in FL https://www.rallyanarchy.com/phorum/read.php?7,73326,74712#msg-74712

I'll hang onto these cars until end of January then will scrap the lot. I'd take $3000 for the cars and parts so get a group buy together or what-not, I'm willing to store the cars for several months until whoever picks up what they're getting but only if everything's paid in full, otherwise that's about what I'll get at the scrap yard. I don't want to be an XR4Ti killer but hard times is hard times... :(

Any chance you can take the time to give price for each car and a price for all the loose parts? or at least a better description of the cars and a list of parts. As a package there is near zero chance of this selling and without a list of what you have there is little interest in trying to form a "group buy" 5 cars and parts would cost over $3K to transport anywhere.

I could pick up 1 car and a truck full of parts but its a 1300 mile tow and you only have a few things i am interested in. It's ridiculous for a few things you have listed to get scrapped..

I read you load and clear, but I haven't tired of these wonderful cars. Unfortunately things happen in people's live that force radical change and in my case I've exhausted all my available options to hang on to these until more prosperous times. I wish I could give them away to those who would enjoy and do something with them, but ultimately they are still an asset that I have to make use of, no matter how unpleasant or bitter the experience. As a passion it's almost like having to choose which of your children gets to eat because they're more likely to survive than the others.

If a miracle occurs one would be on the road and another or two in the stages and on the track, but miracles don't heed timetables much...

I know, been there many times, see the flywheel thread...

But be open to separartuing the pile into bite sized pieces.

Knew a guy up here who was doing the same "all or nothing" well he didn't sell them.
