manik Posted April 7, 2009 Posted April 7, 2009 I've just been made aware of a 2000 Westfield SEiGHT fitted with a Ford 302 V8 that the current owner finds 'too scary' to drive. I guess I can't blame him. He will be selling it, or will trade. Some pictures below. Anyone interested I can put you in touch with the seller (who is not really online). tm
KStier Posted April 7, 2009 Posted April 7, 2009 Any idea what price range he is in...? I am going to Arlington to visit Dick Brink next weekend and might want to see this car. Kyle
eh3civic Posted April 9, 2009 Posted April 9, 2009 I agree, if you could find out his price range, I'd be appreciative.
manik Posted April 9, 2009 Author Posted April 9, 2009 I am told the asking price is right at $20K, but that would need to be discussed with the owner.

scannon Posted April 9, 2009 Posted April 9, 2009 Sweet car at a great price. Do you know how much it weighs?
manik Posted April 9, 2009 Author Posted April 9, 2009 Sweet car at a great price. Do you know how much it weighs? I do not know the weight. But with the V8, not so important? tm
Kess Posted April 9, 2009 Posted April 9, 2009 Hi, I am interested in the car and would like more info. Can you send me a PM? Gary at GMSR DOT INFO. Thanks! Gary Missing my old seven.
scannon Posted April 10, 2009 Posted April 10, 2009 I do not know the weight. But with the V8, not so important? tm Power to weight ratio is everything. Too much horsepower is just about right. Lower weight generally makes for better handling & braking. It would also be interesting to know what the corner weights are.
Kitcat Posted April 12, 2009 Posted April 12, 2009 A Westfield w/those specs? Looks perfect. And for $20K???? I paid $22.5K foir 93 hp!
gjd6640 Posted May 25, 2009 Posted May 25, 2009 Did anyone ever buy this? Speak up and tell us what you think of how it drives!
supersportsp Posted June 18, 2009 Posted June 18, 2009 Car is now on eBay from a dealer in AZ. http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/2001-WESTFEILD-FACTORY-SUPER-7-SEi-V8-5SPD-100-PHOTOS_W0QQitemZ290324904876QQcmdZViewItemQQptZUS_Cars_Trucks?hash=item4398b67bac&_trksid=p4506.c0.m245&_trkparms=65%3A7|39%3A1|240%3A1308
gjd6640 Posted July 1, 2009 Posted July 1, 2009 That AZ dealer still has it. He's asking $26,900. I think that car is going to be hard to sell at that price. It certainly is unique but finding buyers in that price bracket will be tough. http://www.vintageoffroad.com/viewvehicle.cfm?id=769
manik Posted July 1, 2009 Author Posted July 1, 2009 I'm told the car is sold and it is going 'abroad'.
supersportsp Posted July 1, 2009 Posted July 1, 2009 I was told after a conversation with the dealer that it could be had for $22k. This was probably a deal at $20k as originally available.
alcoa7v8 Posted July 20, 2009 Posted July 20, 2009 If Seight is still available please have owner e-mail me. Thanks, Alcoa7v8@yahoo.com
supersportsp Posted July 22, 2009 Posted July 22, 2009 If Seight is still available please have owner e-mail me. Thanks, Alcoa7v8@yahoo.com The dealer didn't post any of this. You would probably need to click on the link to their site above and get in contact with them. I doubt they even know this site exists.
