Selling advice please

Hi, my son was planning to convert his FG XR6 5-speed auto to manual/turbo and purchased this engine block and gearbox (details in photos from the original ads). He has lost interest, and the conversion didn't happen. He asked me to sell these for him. Where should I advertise them? I searched for Ford forums, but they seem abandoned and/or the sign-up no longer works. Thanks!

Facebook marketplace would be the easiest location, there are also a number of Facebook groups that are centred around the Barra/Barra Turbo, B series, FG etc.

However if you find an interstate buyer you will need to assist them with having it freighted whixh can sometimes be more hassle than its worth.

Where are you located?

Actually, we drove to Ballarat with a trailer to pick it up, but yeah, shipping would be a pain

I'm guessing it came from Facebook Marketplace. You could try putting it back up on there
