Took this for MOT today, only failed on handbrake so I will sort that and get it retested and will tax it. Need to sell it as too many cars. Being a 72 its tax exempt of course. Its quick but the clutch does slip sometimes if its hot and you really boot it. Apart from that the gearchange is pretty horrible and the rear window hinges have broken off . Otherwise , it is a functioning car. air filter lid is missing, choke doesn't work and carb has a flatspot. Probably some other stuff but heres the good points Good points: Car is manual with overdrive. Straight body. Bumpers aren't bad either. (They were missing when I bought it) Stainless steel exhausts Stainless brake hoses Stainless engine coolant pipes Stainless wheel nuts Polybushed suspension, antirollbar etc. Some recent new parts including Screen rubber, remote brake servo, and all four tyres. Wolfrace 6 x 14 slots. Nice black metal numberplates (444 number) Has a jack and wheelbrace. Electrics work. (even clock and radio) Good battery. might px a modern if I think its better than my peugeot. Will O77O2 3486O4

showing its age, bigass rip in the drivers seat vinyl Had a problem with LH seat runner so I modded a Datsun one to fit and it works a treat now.

"Understeer" is when you hit the fence with the front of the car.
"Oversteer" is when you hit the fence with the rear of the car.
"Horsepower" is how fast you hit the fence.
"Torque" is how far you take the fence with you

God this is awesome my dad had a couple when i was young. I'm very tempted what is the chassis like. Whats wrong with the gear change and if the rear hatch hinges are broken does that mean it doesn't open?

chassis ok (just passed mot) but has had repairs before at the outriggers I think. the hatch opens, but since the hinges arent attched to it, it comes off in your hands so you have to put it on the floor or lay it in the car, then put it back in its place and the latch keeps it shut at the bottom.
I think the gearchange is bad becuase its just such an old type gearbox (maybe out of a consul or something?) it has linkages on the outside of the box like you would have on column change.
I think people put sierra 5 speeds in em. Would probably cost peanuts to get hold of one .

A guy was meant to be buying this, he took a plane down from up North , so he seemed serious. I said I'd make sure car was ok for 250mile trip back so I drove it about for two hours yesterday including motorway and also found a spare wheel that would fit it. I picked him up from the airport this morning in the car, got back here, he looked round the car, phoned his wife and she must've talked him out of it or something as he took a taxi back to the airport.
So its still HERE if anyone else would like it. I have also got a stainless steel petrol tank for it now which I will INCLUDE with the car for whoever would like it.

Seems like a decent buy for the money tbh folks, they aren't normally that good on the body AND tax exempt at that price - and yes, the gearchange IS due to the crao external linkage gearbox

I think people put sierra 5 speeds in em. Would cost peanuts to get hold of one . 150 quid for a v6 type 9 150 quid for a essex to type9 bellhousing thats a lot of peanuts better to buy new rubbers for the linkages - peanuts

Hiya, i've got my dad interested in this. I'm going to pass your mobile on to him. I don't suppose you'd be interested in an '89 Honda Integra EX-16 and mostly money your way?
If not nevermind, one of us will still be interested in taking a look
Cheers

Hi I don't know what one of those Hondas is you'll have to educate me. Ah i was told all Ford engines pretty much had same bellhousing pattern. Doh! ACtually I've almost got used to the gears having driven it for 2 hours on Saturday. I also realised the petrol gauge is stuck on quarter tank
