Title: STRIPPING 1975 AUTO AVENGER
Post by: Avenger1973SR20 on September 18, 2017, 01:18:33 PM
Hi lads,

I'm going to start stripping my parts car, an 1975 automatic avenger.

I am planning to use all the interior, doors, farings, boot, bonnet and shocks (I may need a few more of the parts for my project avenger), the rest of the parts will be up for grabs or will go to the scrappies if unwanted.

if anyone is interested in buying:

- motor
- auto gearbox/bellhousing
- rear axle
- misc parts.

I'm located in new Plymouth, so if you're passing through and keen for a look then text me on 0278179325 and we can sort something out.

Cheers,
Adam

What price are you after for the bell housing? Could be keen.

BW35 or BW45? might be interested in hoarding the other part, there was a guy in the Wairarapa looking for an Auto on the last TM listing for that red Alpine...

I'm not entirely sure what anything's worth, so I'd say $150 at this stage?

I think it's the BW45, as it has D, 3, 2/1 on the gear lever console.

I'm looking at getting the drivetrain out this weekend, so I can take some pics if anyone's interested.

I would be keen on the bellhousing also if it hasn't been sold already

Hi Guys,

Sorry for being absent the past while, been overrun at work.

Got 2 weeks off over the Christmas break, so hopefully going to have it stripped by the middle of jan.

I haven't cut any of the body yet, so B-pillars still intact brett.

I didn't end up going for the gearbox, I decided to put a V8 in to my Avenger wagon instead, as you do.

So it might still be available

Hi - the rust in the lower b pillar wasn't as bad as I thought
BUT
The engine has a fair bit of slop in the bores so is the engine still around?

Cheers Brett
