Hello Chaps, I've got a Ford based Eagle SS body for sale, it's white, theres a fair few cracks in the gel coat, interior is shot, it's mouldy so is off to the tip this weekend unless anyone is desperate for a certain part.. The passenger side rear door hinge is broken, and the door catch on the drivers side has pulled out. All glass is there, doors, rear and front screen. Theres no cracks although the edges of the front screen have started to cloud slightly. Theres a hole about the size of the base of a battery in the boot, where the battery goes!
Anyways, if it's any use how does £300 sound? It's in Grimsby, North East Lincs
Cheers, Mike

Really the worst time of year to off load a car, any car. Off to the tip is a hanging offense, surely if someone just takes it away it's better than the tip? That screen is worth a fair bit for a start. The door problems are common but fixable. I would appreciate any details of the car for the EOC register as it is one of the few remaining SSs out of 680 made please- What we are trying to avoid. So, anyone else like to rescue a SS? No not Mavrick, done enough this year .

Hi Peter, I wasn't going to send the shell to the tip! Just the seats and carpets, they are covered in moss and toadstools and the seat covers are shredded, I'd like it to be able to go and help some others if the glass or any parts are of use. If anyone is absolutely desperate for a minging interior for patterns i'll hose it off and could keep it for a couple of weeks but space is tight sadly.
You'll probably hate me, but it's the white SS that was on ebay last week. I need the running gear for a project but hopefully the bits I don't need will help someone else
Cheers, Mike

Do you have any details for the register I can add? So far we have only been able to locate 86 out of a total 690 SSs of all types and marks including this one, there are only a total of 202 Eagles of ALL types out of an estimated maximum 1,500 cars located so far.. Does it still have the OEM interior panels like dash, instrument pod, door panels (with teardrops) and A post trims, are the seats OEM fiber glass buckets or aftermarket?

Good Morning Peter, as far as interior details I wouldn't know if the bits are original, but they certainly look it.. Here's a pic for you if that helps, I said it was grim!

I would be interested in seats, doors , roll over bar and carpets for patterns. Have you still got any of these? This would be for an Eagle SS that I am restoring.

It would be a shame if body or windsceen was damaged when you remove the body fron chassis.They often get damaged when removing or in transit. I have a ford based Eagle ss chassis for sale with front axle and suspension and rear axle with suspension. It may be easier for you to use this for your project rather thet break up the car you have.

Remember what we are trying to avoid, each SS scrapped is a car lost forever.

Is there any progress with this vehicle/body shell? are the old reclining seats and roll over bar for sale? I know that these must be quite narrow seats that will fit well into my Phase 2 Eagle ss.

The Body is now off the chassis, and should be collected 1 week eitherside of 1st October.
I have sent "neilsmith" a private message regarding what I may need, not need / undecided. and pre collection info on the seats.

Have you collected the body yet, and if so do you know what parts you will be selling?
