bought this 2.0 pinto saph of ebay for 450 quid



in fairness it looked like a complete grandad mobile . but there is no rust , has been undersealed since new , got full service history , 2 owners from new and only done 62,000 miles ,

got it looking abit more tidy and done a few shows in it


but on the roads it was as usefull as a nuns tits tbh , the pinto had to go to make way for more power .

had a choice of engines

Yb cossie -everyone has one and there dam expensive,
v6 cossie - everyone has one and theres too many wires etc for my likeing,
rover v8 , had crossed my mind at first but i just dont think rover goes well with a ford ,

5.0 ford 302 v8 , BINGO!

first things first , get rid of the pinto and type 9 , slung it on ebay for £250 and immediatly a bloke bought it to drop in his anglia .



And this is how it is sitting at the moment


have orderd the 302 from real steels and am going to collect it on the 5th , in the mean time , need to source a T5 box , some decent suspension as mine is fooked ,

more to come when i get some time to work on it
