Hi People
Due to a drastic change in circumstances I have a Dutton Melos needina a new home
Built in the 80's if memory serves.
Good points.
Good 1600cc crossflow engine, Engine has been started by bridging the starter solinoid.
Nice good condition chrome side exit exhaust.
Chrome whheels(california i was told) but look like chrome wellers to me.
No rust that i could fine, Chassis can be used for many applications.
Weighs curse word all
Registered previously so easier on the paperwork.
Bad bits
No bonnet, It got destroyed many moons ago. But a bonnet supplied that with little work and beating could be made to fit. It even has a working bonnet scoop.
Wiring is typically home made hence starting it from the solinoid as the key does curse word all.
No seats as the originals were shot.
Cannot find the paperwork but reciept will be given.
Not a weekends work but also not a basket case. Will be awesome fun when done.
Front brakes and suspension links need a complete going through.
Does have the wet weather gear but to be honest it's useless and needs repair.
MK2 escort based to simples.
Now the main part.
The car will have to be collected between 9 and 4 this Saturday(20/02/2016) after that it will be destroyed.
I have not got any time to split it unfortunatly as I know the engines alone are popular.
Will upload pictures tomorrow when I gat a chance to get round to the garage.
Any questions please fire away.
