Now the cars back together gave the engine a quick clean and fixed a broken bumper clip

 

 

Took car out for a test drive today make sure all was well, everything seemed ok think I may have to get a paddle clutch think this one isn't up to the job




Think next job is to make a new Amal valve bracket

 

Managed to get hold of a brand new Bootlid still got ford stickers on it, swapped looms from another spare I had before it goes for painting
Black ones new obvious


White ones a spare I had be selling it soon

 

Looking very clean under the bonnet fella

 

Cheers fela getting there, yours is looking immense fela

 

Glad its running well.

 

Had the car on the performance direct insurance stand at santapod was a great day 300mile round trip car didn't put a foot wrong was well chuffed

 

 

also fitted a new fan loom just before we went down, it uses each fan separately and has a switch to turn one of the fans on from inside the car when you want it on. Worked well while sat in the traffic waiting to get out of classic ford.

 

Awesome pics there,the car looks cracking.

Thanks.Lee.

 

Cheers fela

Cheers fela

 

Fixed a small oil leak from a cam seal and changed the cam cover gasket for a cometic

 

Got the seal done and the cam belt back on refit the covers tomorrow, then it should be off for the new Bootlid

Need a new boot lock mine has collapsed inside not sure where to get one from, can you get new ones?

 

Got the boot badge sorted but still having trouble with the boot lock, if anyone has any pics of the boot setup that would be a great help
A pic of the car on the passionford stand at ford fair great day

 

Stunning car!

 

Cheers

 

Going for MOT on sat morning so going to give it the once over tomorrow, does anyone know where I can get a boot lock new if possible mins knackered.

Cheers fela got that in my watched items

 

No worrys mate. love the 3dr by the way. Just bought the same rims for mine but trimmed arches and brought the wheels right out. Also had the middle nut machined right out where the cap goes so it looks like a centre lock and painted centre of wheels gold. Really smart rim for the money

 

Are your rears wider and what tyre size you running if you don't mind me asking bud??

 

There 8"/18 215/35/18 front
9"/18" 225/35/18 rears

 

Had the car in for mot went through no worries




Noticed a small oil leak coming from the crankcase end cover so I think it might be an engine out job to do that and the sump gasket and may aswell do all the seals too.

 

Got a twin gauge pod for the pillar gave it a trial fit
Can't decide if I like it or not




Getting a volt meter and an afr gauge to go in it

 

nice engine in the background

 

Nice car can't you drop the x member a bit a do those seals .

 

For some banger think its a mk2 ha ha

 

Could do but if I'm gonna do it might aswell clean and paint it and maybe a new autospecialist inlet manifold aswell

 

Managed to get hold of a new dash as mines got the usual cracks if not too bad







So that means all the dash out and a tidy up under there too, not going to do it just yet

 

After going to ford fair discovered I had a small oil leak coming from the crankshaft end case so decided to take the engine out to sort that and a few other bits and bobs, started stripping it




Gonna change the clutch as it's not up to the job and thinking of a new inlet manifold maybe a autospecialist item
