Dave Posted April 27, 2014 Share Posted April 27, 2014 I love classic cars, was my passion before I got into Hondas. Nice project you got there mate. I was into restoring old 70's fords, but what I would love is a Datsun 240Z or 260Z. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jayhoath83 Posted April 27, 2014 Author Share Posted April 27, 2014 Well i went to get the engine up on the stand as the rain stoped for a while. anyway so i split off the gearbox then took off the clutch which i was happy to find was an exedy stage 1 with half its life left woohoo but as i got to the fly its in a bad way as in very scored so will need a skim but at the moment i cant get it off as i dont have the right socket for the torque bolts or long enough ones to mount it properly so the getting it on the stand will have to wait till tomozz lol always the way 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NIKH25 Posted April 27, 2014 Share Posted April 27, 2014 I do have a bit of a soft spot for the MGB, definitely one of the better cars to come out of Leyland in the 70's/80's. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
