pick up type thing for sale???? maybe.

well i have a itch in my groin for a 4x4 400bhp prelude and to fund it i would have to sell the yellow peril. if i did sell it it would have the m2b4 box fitted in it stickers removed so its back all yellow and a new mot. but how the feck do i value it. now anythings only worth what somebodys willing to pay which could be anything from £150 scrap on a weigh in value to about £8000 which it would actually owe me including my labour to build it.
now being a real life down to earth feet stuck firmly to the ground person i think the place to sell such an oddball item is probably ebay and having watched similar type things on there it would probably fetch somewhere between £1500-£2500 assuming the similar items are built to a decent standard.
so the purpose of this thread is to basically find out if anybody on here would have any interest in owning it.
if i do sell i can build a more outragous thing than i already have that could be the new tram road motors advert, the pickup has served its purpose over the last 18 months and brought me in some work and maybe just maybe a new project would bring in some more.
thoughts please good bad or otherwise.
cheers, TED

I think £2500 with the box could be done, you might have to wait a while for the right buyer tho.

Think a classified ad would be a better move than an auction...

How much do you recon the 4wd setup would cost incl parts? If I get my website money sometime soon (I've been saying it for 2 years now mind) I'll pay you to 4wd mine which should fund doing it on yours

How would you do it? HRV running gear with a h2d?

@ alex, there is a h2d plate on the market now, or h2b and use the smx 4wd setup or there is a 4wd civic aswell!

2 engines would be better

I thought twin engined vehicles couldn't be road legal??

2 engines would be epic!

I saw a corsa which had 2 engines in before, pretty sure it was road legal...
