OK... Just been on the phone. I have now bought the car. Seller told me the left hand trailing arm looks good, the right hand had corrosion but not through... (kein durchrosten). It will be picked up on the 6th or 9th of June and should arrive a few days later. I'll keep you posted. PS: It was owned by a guy (who is now passed away) and was keept in a barn for many years! Another reason to believe it isn't in a to bad shape... fingers crossed  |

Hi all... OK, so we have the following reservations so far: Krede: Gearbox, front and rear wings Jesper: Some interior parts, gear shift and the roof Anders: Engine (-head), right hand door and a lot of other parts! I'm taking all parts that differ from the 1.6 version and probably also the rear bumper... Though Anders and I might need to armwrestle over some of the parts that always seem to break on our Murena's (rear lenses, drivers seat, side mirrors, front bumper and so on) |

I would also like to claim the the door metal window frames, and the L&R front and rear wings (skærmene) if on one has so far. !!!... unless of cause you need them yourself . Ps: Anders+Waldo... could we coordinate a day around the 1 st of July to salvage the engine gearbox etc?.. might be nice to be a few ppl since the engine is bloody heavy! PPs: I have a spare Drivers seat in pretty good condition (in grey anders!!). and Ill give it up as soon as I decide when and where to have some leather seats made/bought instead. Krede, I'm also going for some leather upholstery... I'm seriously considering Poland, maybe we can get some group discount  Concerning the wings, I might need the rear L+R... by the way, do anyone know how to take them off rather easy? |

The procedure is described in the workshop manual. I'm sure you will not find it easy, but it is possible of course. I have scanned the pages for you, starting with this one (there are four pages on the subject): http://gallery.dinsen.net/v/biler/Murena/technical/manual/CCF30052008_00000.jpg.htmlPs: Anders+Waldo... could we coordinate a day around the 1 st of July to salvage the engine gearbox etc?.. might be nice to be a few ppl since the engine is bloody heavy!
Sounds like a good idea. Weekend 28th/29th will be busy for me, but the following weekend 5th and 6th of July are free. I can bring two young, but eager, lads too  PPs: I have a spare Drivers seat in pretty good condition (in grey anders!!). and Ill give it up as soon as I decide when and where to have some leather seats made/bought instead.
I'll keep that in mind! I want to extend the seat back on the standard seat, and as I like the grey velours, I'll see if I can reproduce that somehow. Should be possible, though it will take some work. It will be fun, though I've never worked much with a needle, but I'm pretty sure I can get my mother in law to help me with the cutting and the sewing machine. I'll need some spare "buttons" though. |

Anyday before the 25 of June, I'm eager to go visit you Waldo. And if you know anybody who might be interessted in buying my white murena, please tell me. I have a hard time putting enough resources into nursing two murenas.  Btw. if nobody have mentioned the front window, and if it is in good condition, I will be happy to grab that too. Well, let's see. But if you have some day before the 25 of june, it would be wonderful. And if you could announce that date here on the forum, berhaps other people would join in. Best, Jesper |

Well... not sure about the date yet. I would like to have the car in Denmark before making arrangements, but I have ordered the car to be picked up on friday the 6th. Should arrive early next week I'm kind of busy the next few weekends, but maybe the 15th or 22nd... But to be honest a weekday would be better for me  I don't know anyone who's looking for a Murena at the moment, but I think your car looks very nice and seems to be good value as well... Have you tried listing it for sale in germany or sweden? (mobile.de / blocket.se) By the way, I got more than enough Murena's at the moment, still got my project car and a german 1.6 sitting at my workshop... |
