Yeah I saw on the I Roll FB group. Melbourne is way too far to travel for me. Looking for something in QLD or northern NSW.

83' 240 or 87' 360GLT. why does it matter which car its for? Im not fussed on if its an early or later design. Im already going to have to do a lot of work so the specific variant that it is is not even on the top 10 list of things im worried about.

Do you have anything?

You get it shipped. Cheaper than going to get it.

With whole car you get everything you need and not chasing parts that ends up costing more than buying a whole car as a doner in first place

Look at the guide on this forum for doing a conversion, someone wrote one up.

A donor is the way.

Well, by the looks of it, he sold the $1700 740, which leaves the one hes asking $2700 for, which especially including the shipping to get it up here, is going to be well out of budget. Ideally I can find just a manifold because I have access to most of the other stuff Id need pretty cheap already, or if I can get my hands on a b230FT that would work just as well.

You wouldnt know of anyone around here that would be willing to part with a manifold would you? Hell, id be willing to pay for shipping for just a manifold, provided the price is right.

I mean im willing to take the engine itself if its past 1993 and give you the manifold if you'd like. But it will take few days for me to save up that much ?

That could work - keep me in the loop if you end up buying it. Thanks for the offer
