Silber Posted March 18 Share Posted March 18 Are you looking for local pickup only, or would you be interested in shipping it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
D_Mac Posted March 18 Author Share Posted March 18 Pick up is easier for me, having said that I can ship as well. Where are you located? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Silber Posted March 19 Share Posted March 19 I'm in the greater Salt Lake City area. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
D_Mac Posted March 19 Author Share Posted March 19 I am thinking that picking up in California is not going to work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Silber Posted March 19 Share Posted March 19 Haha, indeed, which is why I asked about shipping. On 3/15/2024 at 11:05 AM, D_Mac said: The best unreasonable offers will be accepted. Depending on the cost to ship, my hopefully-not-too-unreasonable offer would be to cover shipping cost plus some extra on top for your time and effort. Full disclaimer I'm considering this very casually. I have one seat that has some minor cracking in the fiberglass, but it's on the passenger side now and not a high priority to fix/replace. But if I can get a bargain priced Kirkey that was already mounted in a Birkin.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
D_Mac Posted March 19 Author Share Posted March 19 OK, I will find out what the shipping charge is and share it with you. Do you have the original Birkin seats? If so, they are not to bad. The Birkin requires some very skinny seats. Not for those with robust bottoms. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Silber Posted March 20 Share Posted March 20 Thank you. I appreciate it. I do have original Birkin seats. They look like the taller seat in the picture below: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
D_Mac Posted March 20 Author Share Posted March 20 OK, Those are distinctly different from mine. I will send you a photo. I like the cockpit trim you have. Did you do that yourself. I am making a lot of saw dust while working on a version myself. Yours is much simpler than what I have been struggling with. You even have an arm rest. I am jealous.

Silber Posted March 20 Share Posted March 20 That was just a picture pulled from a google search. Pictures of my car (but of the interior) can be seen here: I'll send you a text message and we can continue there. Thanks! Gregory Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cueball1 Posted March 22 Share Posted March 22 If not sold I'd like to throw my hat in the ring. Do you know what width and what model it is? Needing a track daye seat for the Birkin I bought late fall. I'm in Oregon. 97045 area code if needed to figure shipping. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
D_Mac Posted March 23 Author Share Posted March 23 Cueball, the Kirkey seat is your s if you want it. No charge for the seat. What city are you in? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
D_Mac Posted March 23 Author Share Posted March 23 The shipping to Utah was $136. Probably about the same to Oregon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cueball1 Posted March 24 Share Posted March 24 Sorry the other person didn't work out but happy for me! Will pm my information. Let me know how much on shipping and how to get you the money. I enjoyed watching this car on BAT. Impressive vehicle. Interesting watching you take it from track beast to fast road car. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
D_Mac Posted March 24 Author Share Posted March 24 It was a track beast on BAT, but unfortunately not so much upon delivery. There were several shortcomings that pointed the way back to the street. I have spent far more hours working on the shortcomings than driving the car. Having said that this project has been really fun. I picked up a 2009 Lotus Elise which is properly set up for a solid track day. The Seven is still much more fun to tinker with and drive for sure.

Cueball1 Posted March 25 Share Posted March 25 (edited) Bummer the car didn't live up to the advertisement. Hope it becomes the car you're wanting it to be soon! I feel I got very lucky buying mine off craigslist. Needs some misc things done to get it to my expectations but not really due to any shortcomings. 🤞 Just making it fit my useage.

Cueball1 Posted April 9 Share Posted April 9 Now to fashion brackets and find something to line the openings to keep racing shoulder belts from rubbing against bare metal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
