Philthepill Posted June 29, 2012 Report Posted June 29, 2012 25 yrs a go I bought the last MK 1 74/75 to roll off the production line at Dagenham. As a Dagenham boy myself this was a matter of pride! It now has a 2.1 Pinto engine, all the running gear has been uprated to 2 litre spec. Uprated suspention, tramp bars welded to chassis, coil over rear dampers, tunnel cut and shut, quick shift 2000E reconditioned gear box, RS2000 MK2 rear axle, fleetway comp clutch. After a slight 'issue' in the last place it was kept, the engine hasn't been started in 15 years! This is where I need advice. Can anyone tell me if once everything is reassembled ready to go eg/ pipework, rad, electrics, is there anything that might be an issue?
