Thought you'd got sorted, or are you trying to corner the market on Anglias

[Englishbulls]

Yeah I know, it was all sorted then the guy decided to keep it after deposit paid and transport arranged.

 

Funny thing is that when I have sold my cars in the past, they were all mint and I had no end of time wasters before selling them. I'm trying to buy one and pay a good price and I just can't seem to find one where I view, pay and take it away.

 

So back to the drawing board, I have the cash so hopefully someone out there will get in touch.

 

I'm looking at one in Cornwall next week but it's heavily modified so not sure.

 

Cheers

Gutted for you mate, that looked a brill shell for a cracking car sorry van

[Englishbulls]

Cheers.

 

Something will turn up, there must be someone out there with a good car wanting a straightforward sale???

[Vista]

What's the one in Cornwall?

[Englishbulls]

It was put on eBay in the end but been up for sale for a while now.

 

It need repainting as its bright green and I am not sure about a Toyota engine but I had a blue van I did the body similar about 15-years ago and never seen it since, I put a 2 litre pinto in. I'll dig out some photos of it.

Oh that one lol was up for £10,500 I think. You'd need to spend another 5k to put it right -keep looking I say. Theres a pretty nice standard 309E opposite my house but he's not interested in selling I've already asked him. Did you ever see the tv show 'Shed and Buried' with Henry Cole, the owner of said van was on the first show with a house and garage full of stuff including a giant guard rabbit! Cant remember if the van was shown could try youtube.

Sorry episode 2.

[Englishbulls]

Yeah I know, something will turn up, I might end up doing another Cortina if I can find a good base car.

Depending how urgent you want one, you could have a word with Transplanter. He and his mate import cars from America could see if anything is availiable. That's where my Tina came from and it saves chasing rust worm.

I have looked at the left hookers but how do you convert to RHD?

Depending if you get pre airflow or not, airflow ones easy. Early ones with strip speedo require full dash airflow can be swapped and stitched. Then it's just the usual s/ box , wiring and few small bits and pieces

[Englishbulls]

Found one with zetec and 5-speed box, it is being collected next week.

Needs a new hand brake cable but not sure what one is fitted so I need help working this out?

Looks nice and tidy, all the work done for you. Is it up to scratch or is there anything that needs really sorting apart from h/ brake

[Englishbulls]

I think the gearbox needs a rebuild and a new diff plus I want to put discs on rear and maybe the paint tidied up in a few places but nothing major...

[paul1957]

thats lucky it didnt take long to find that one it looks a good car

[mk1del]

Looks the business

[Englishbulls]

Yeah, well happy and it will look good next to my Mk1 Tina.
