He was a great guy to deal with, so grab yourself some hard to find bits and pieces!
Purple 1997 Mitsubishi Nimbus, lowered with body kit, turbo RVR Hypergear motor and auto gearbox for sale. Brand new Springs and shocks.
It is an unfinished project, but it is nearly done. All you need is a few items like a battery box, new battery, and a few miscellaneous parts like the bonnet clip and other sundry items, and to properly wire in the thermofans, they currently run at full speed.
The final work was done by Meek Automotive, and they did a nice job, they also modified the drive shafts to suit.
The motor is from Miodrag's RVR Hypergear, as is the gearbox, but the gearbox was converted to FWD by Rockabilly and is rock solid.
Brand new slightly lowered springs and shocks
It is sitting inside a modified Nimbus body, the front spoiler needs repair but the rest of the body is in good shape.
The interior needs work, the seats are great. Brakes are upgraded 4 wheel discs, along with engineers reports etc.
It has 4 new tyres, and there are a larger set of 19" rims that I will throw in with it, but they need tyres.
Realistically, you could buy it just for the motor and gearbox, or finish the job and have a truly unique vehicle.
Unfortunately I had another kid during the build, had to move and now do not have a workshop, the time or money to finish it off.
You will also need a battery and a new crank-angle sensor (about $165) as I took the one from it to use in my standard Nimbus when it's one failed.
There are a ton of spares, including a spare instrumentation set, the very expensive and hard to find round airflow meter, a full spare front-end wiring loom, and tons more that I will throw in if it sells for close to asking price.
I sadly have spent well over ten grand, the bill from Meek alone was nearly $4000, and I paid $3500 for the engine and gearbox (including gearbox mods), plus another $3500 in work getting the brakes, wiring, suspension done and fitted etc.
I'm only asking $3900 ono for the entire thing, the car is in Mudgee NSW 2850, and is not registered. I could potentially tow it on a car trailer as far as Lithgow or Bathurst/Dubbo/Orange.
I've lost my job and need the money badly, my daily driver has had it's gearbox die, so I need the cash to get a new box for it ( A UG Nimbus) so would be happy to take a gearbox as part trade. Having the car off the road and 4 kids is no fun!
I'll get photos up tomorrow, as well as copies of the Meek receipts etc. Open to any and all offers.
