Title: 500 basket case values

I've been watching this ..it started at £250 and I genuinely thought ok yep that's a fair deal for a load of spares..
But now in my mind this is getting alot of money for a complete refurb..i guess the v5 and frame is worth a few quid if you have plenty to sling on it but it seems like a very long project...and surely a runner in any state would be a better point to start from...
But as I'm learning more and more "what do i know"

Yes I spotted this a few days ago. But if the frame powder coating is good, that's £150ish for complete job. There was a discussion recently about just the price of an engine. So £677 with three hours to go. Presume it's a K1. DSS will be happy.

Thats cheap but a money pit, you could double it as spares
