No worries.

Maybe not Tom, i've moved out of York so the car is at home, it'll be a while till she see the open road..

Price... mmmm Well it did come with a few spares including a couple of lsd's, lights, new set of disc's/pads, and a few outher goodies...

But the shell needs quite a bit of work at the back end, i'm going to sand blast the shell so the job is done right.

A little bit more than you paid for yours Betty but not much

Sweet man, i kinda like the yellow - its different

I wonder how many undiscovered 86s and KE70s are left lurking places like old peoples garages?

She hadn't run for four years, guy took the plugs out and ran the engine over to get the oil pressure up. I went round the next day with a gerry can, started the first turn of the key, no rattles, no smoke no drama

Clutch slave cylinder ate the piston so i couldn't drive her

Good boy pike! haha

The only issue you could have with the engine as its been sat so long is a headgasket pop and corroded head/block around no.4, and if its been unloved the bottom end could eventually rattle once youve given her some revs!
But thats all simple stuff and no biggie!

I know its been a while but with a new house time is limited..

But, while the other half went visiting friends, "Of cause i'll be on with the house darling"

I took the chance to get a few snaps...

Totally standard...



Boot floor





The damage was done when she started, think it twas a bit rotten..





RAC stickers. Where were you in the nineties lol







It looks worse than it is..



Nothing a good sand blast won't cure.



This lot came with the car. Full set of disc's and pads, spots with brackets, rear shocks, couple of diff,s, that a point, i take it 4.3 is the standard ratio? There are another three wheels to match the one shown.



These any good?





Any one out there got a manual on pdf file i could have ?

haha, fricking hell, did someone dunk the bottom half of the car in salt water before they let it stand!

Bare shell time Shot blast the whole shell, shot blast and powder coat all mechanicals that your gonna keep on the car!

I predict £10k and 2 years! See you later dude! lol

BTW, those shockers are a std uprated replacement, which is all you would of needed for road rally's etc! And yes, 4.3 is a std 86 diff ratio!
