paul_bish Posted June 3, 2015 Share Posted June 3, 2015 Welcome on board. Thats a nice thing to find in the garden, all I found was an old bedstead in the loft when I moved in... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
robin craig Posted June 3, 2015 Share Posted June 3, 2015 Welcome to the Forum. Pictures help. If you are going to scrap it then I would think many here would give you the scrap value without question. R Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grasshopper Posted June 3, 2015 Share Posted June 3, 2015 Some Fox parts can be very difficult or impossible to obtain, so depending on what work yours needs, it would certainly have a value in parts if nothing else. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
datadawg Posted June 3, 2015 Share Posted June 3, 2015 I bought a house that turned out to have a Daimler fox tucked at the bottom of the garden I would start digging around the back yard, if the seller abandoned the Fox, chances are there's buried gold everywhere:cool2:. If you are thinking about getting back in the hobby, this might be a message from the man upstairs to get started! Please, whatever you do, don't just scrap it at the recycling yard. At least let this community preserve it by having someone here take it. I am sure you will be able to get scrap + from any collector. The satisfaction of knowing it's going to get a new life is also going to be worth something. Please do post some photos. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
