2.2 parts - group buy - Anyone need anything?

[Waldo]

Hi all...

Just got the shipping quote. Looking at 3800 DKK... not cheap but not to dear either!

Still waiting for some pictures of the car.

Jesper, I'm in Korsoer and you should be able to get all you listed, I probably don't even need the speedo/rpm counter...
Of course I can also send parts to people, but then i would need to get paid for my time...
The idea was to get very cheap parts to people in need and to cover the shipping if possible 

[njesper]

Cool, Waldo.

I would love to come visit you and get the parts.
Perhaps when you are ready, other murena people could come at a specific date, and we can have a "mini dk-get together"

Looking forward to seeing some pics.

You can email me on murena@natkat.dk when you know how much you want for the parts.

Best, Jesper

Excellent idea!

I'll be happy to stay a while, and help carve up the carcass when I'm picking up the gearbox

When do you think the car will be in Dk?

[Waldo]

First of all I'm still waiting for some pictures of the car... If it's in ok condition it should be here in a about a week.
The seller mailed this morning and told me I would have the pictures tonight!

Otherwise I will look for another 2.2 that we can salvage...

[Waldo]

Ps: Any idea what the shipping will be?... because I could really use a spare gearbox.

Have you trashed your gearbox by the way?

[krede]

The previous owner had it renovated for no small expense.. and its only about  20-30.000km ago.. still its making a loud scraping sound whenever its not under load, so I take it that either the main bearing or the diff is gone.
Would be nice to have a spare box while I rebuild the other.

If you are looking for an another engine I can recommend the PSA HDI DW10TD, fits like a glove and almost no work involved in the swap...  NOT

[krede]

Hans and I am going the 2.2 turbo way instead

Here are pictures... looks like I pretty much expected... not that good!













I can't make up my mind if I should go for this car or look for a better one 

Will ask for pictures of the trailing arms anyway...

It looks excellent IMO! Don't expect anything pretty if it has been off the road for so many years. It's dirty, yes, but everything is intact: Side mirrors, rear lenses, dash, and while the inlet manifold and carb is missing, the engine looks ok. It's there! This car could even have been a restoration project 

Where in Germany is it?

Trailing arms are probably not good, but I notice that the rear end isn't sitting low or out of camber. Photos won't say much as they will show rust on the outside, but they could still be fine on the inside. I suggest you either ask the seller to check them for serious corrosion around the bearings, or just go for it. Chances are good that they can be welded.

I notice also that the water pipes in the engine compartment are relatively free from rust. Mine was much worse (now stainless steel )

And the front bumper is intact.

I'd like to claim the following items too:

Rear struts (springs)
Side mirrors...
Rear lenses...
The radio and equalizer - real 80's items
Header tank

Yes... I completely follow what you're saying.

I will ask the guy to try and put a screwdriver throug the trailing arms... that if it goes in it's a no go 

Otherwise I will book pick up for next week!

Anders, you are starting to put your dirty little hands on a lot of parts... 
You might end up paying a decent amount of DKK 

[Waldo]

By the way, it's located some where near Kassel...
But you better not buy it before me 

[Waldo]

Another questions!
Does anyone of you know a Jacob that lives in Valby and owns a Murena 2.2?
Just spoke to the guy and he might buy my spare set of alloys...

But you better not buy it before me 

I'd never do that, I just wanted to know to make a judgement about how bad it would be. Kassel is a good area in Germany regarding corrosion - there's a bit of mountains and snow on the roads, but not badly and generally it's a very dry area where cars last almost forever.

I know from people who has imported stuff.

Yes, I know I'll have to pay for what I get!
