So I was cleaning up around home today and decided to get rid of a few poorly assembled plastic models and a broken diecast car that I had that was missing a few pieces and was an odd scale (1/25) so it looked a little odd in my collection. Naturally before I hauled them to the diecast wrecking yard I took them apart a bit and had an idea. I love the BADT series, so why not start another popular Craigslist-add-type-segment, Parting Out. Diecast cars and models are made of parts much like a real car, so when one is beyond saving, why not “part it out” (ie. save pieces for customs/decoration). So with no further adieu here is my first “parting out” add.
Parting out Ferarri F40. Parting out my prize F40, after an on track mishap my pride and joy was totaled and beyond repair. I bought it back from the insurance company in the hopes of getting someone to take on the work to no avail, it’s just too far gone. So I decided to cut my loses and had the mechanic pull off every good part they could and see if I could sell of a few good pieces either for your F40 restoration, spares, or for the project of your wildest dreams. Parts I have available are;
Engine, with full intake, exhaust, turbo and intercooler system.
Full set of wheels and tires, few scuffs, nothing that isn’t repairable.
Steering wheel and steering column.
Rear fascia mesh insert.
Complete dash with all gauges.
Seats, no visible wear, amazing shape.
Doors, driver and passenger side, a few scuffs, no major damage, everything is repairable.
I’m open to offers for any of the parts, but keep in mind these are genuine Ferrari parts! Not cheap knock offs, so low ball offers will be ignored! Thanks for looking.
*Better pictures upon request, I took these on the way home from the shop.
Hope everyone enjoyed this and if so I’ve got a few more that I could write up. Let me know what you think!
