Thanks for the warm welcome folks!
I'll try to post up some pics for you - not sure what the correct place to put them would be.
Yes, its an ebay car from the Northants area.
Its tidy enough, I have however got my work cut out
I've had the radiator re-cored (looks a thing of beauty in its matt black) and I'm itching to get it refitted!
Its gonna fit a pair of new rotoflexes (bought) a new heater valve (bought) all new hoses (bought) got a new mild steel exhaust for it
At the moment its in quite a few pieces - the manifolds and starter are off and Ive fettled the waterpump and its housing, cleaned out the long coolant tube (bypass?) that goes from the waterpump to the heater. Cleaned up the starter and bendix and so on.
Loads still to do.
I do however need a new exhaust manifold - if anyone on here could help me out with one I'd be very gratefull as its holding me up not having one at the mo.
Heres the biggy though, it needs welding on the front chassis legs where the subframe mounts
The rear mounts look okay.
It also needs a "coat of looking at" on the front passenger sill end.
