It more infor on the car,
I have owned it for around 3 years it was my second car after my 75 tourer. Bought with around 110000 on the clock.
A couple of years ago I did have an accident in the car and there is some pictures showing this in the build thread. The only 2 parts not replaced after this was the cooling fan and the air on system was removed as it was to far damaged.
The front bumper was replaced with a 75 bumper in copperleaf as I haven't been able to source a replacement zt one however the red one fitted is salvageable and I was planning on getting it painted.
After the crash I repaired the car and carried on driving it until it had a starting issue, it had been reliable as an old dog until one day it would not start. Big Russ brought his T4 over and it was suspected issue with the camshaft. I sourced a replacement engine from the forum and fitted it's long with a few other bits, during this time the MOT ran out and it failed its retest. I have replaced the brake lines fixed the sidelights and the front wheel bearings which did not need replacing.
Since the failed mot it has also had a slave cylinder fitted as this gave up the ghost on the way home from the test centre. I have literally poured money into this car and the asking price doesn't cover the cost of the engine and me fitting it along with a full service etc.
If no joy it will either be broken up or all the good bits removed and run into the ground
