hi guys,
im new to this site i got it recomended by some family i met whilst camping, basically i bought a 1973 88'' a few years ago, it was working fine for ages but the it began to overheat and the engine would cut out even in 1st gear until i finally wouldn't start at all, its been stood now for 2 years and my mum wants it off her drive one way or the other :embarrassed:
any ideas would help, cheers

craigderby:
Whereabouts are you?  There might be someone in your area looking to buy a project  ;)

Rich_P:
Overheating engine that begins to refuse to turn over and eventually stops completely.  That doesn't sound healthy.  :-o

richbentley:
yeah its not a great situation to be in, now i'm no mechanic but i guess its fubar!
i would love to fix it up, how much would it cost to do? however whats the value roughly to sell as a project?

im in wakefield west yorks by the way

craigderby:
It'd be worth trying to get a 2nd hand engine.  There's plenty about and they're not too expensive
