i've been fixing this!
first of all, the benefits of having an aircraft engineer for a dad!
we've had it back on the road and it drives straight, will need tracking to get the steering wheel sat dead on 180degress horizontol again though! so it will be taken to a garage for that!
its standing without most of its front end at the moment. Replaced suspension mount and am hopefully getting a new wing this week of a gent on here! need a new passengers side light and a new wheel, dont want to leave the 'temporary' wheel on there.
Gah, I've been working on the car ALL day . Repaired fuel tank is on tho. Everything else I wanted to do is more or less done too. The fuel pump leaking didnt help, so that was replaced at short notice in the dark and cold. And after a jump start, she's back amongst the living. I put £25 of petrol in her, lets see how much is left in the morning (fingers crossed).
i've been at it from sun up to sundown every day since last thursday. some weeks holiday that turned out to be, glad to go back to work tomorrow to have a rest.
it's all worth it though
how did everyone get on then,
i found exhaust blow behind the manifold and also lagged the flexi, a good day.
i'll be stripping my white one down at my mrs house at the weekend...... with a little help from somone i think haha!!!
rebuilding a bare shell reprayed mk 1 escort with 1600 engine on twin 40's
finally about finished all engine stuff on saturday
it runs and sounds the tits
Waiting for my mate to turn down my Hub socket on his lathe so i can change my driveshafts next weekend. Got a downpipe to fit, and also check the rest of the system for leaks, i reckon my manifolds cracked
i got to weld up my turbo-to-intercooler steel boost pipe, where it bolts to gearbox, its snapped leaving a pea-sized whole, one thing after another lately!
