Where can i buy a second hand jet engine?

I know someone building a car with a Liberty Aero engine in it. Now that is some lump, and he is quite mad.

We used to have a Goblin Jet engine out of a Vampire ( or maybe a Venom) tucked away in the corner of our Air cadets hut. Nobody ever showed us how it worked, it was just 'there'.

There is a garage in Crewkerne, Somerset that has got a Jet engine in a cradle for sale in its showroom. I have only seen it from the van window as I drive past but I think it is around £500. I couldn't tell you wether its a turbine or jet but it seems to have a control panel on the cradle with guages etc.
And before anyone chips in I am certain its not a diesel space heater!
If you are seriously interested I will pop in next time I am passing and find out some more details.
