Well id say £40 posted for the strut brace, and £120 posted for the cam and pulley, as I would want to sell them together.
Or you can have the strut brace, manifold, and the whole engine for £250 if you come and collect it

A few pics from today, grommet fits snug in the back window, struts are off but my phone died so couldnt get a pic. I sprayed the rallye inserts and decided to spray my wing mirror covers.
My makeshift stand comprising of 2 speaker stands, curtains rail hoops and a piece of wood
Poor quality pics from phone make them look shit but I assure you they're not
