KieranEbbettNZ Posted October 30, 2016 Share Posted October 30, 2016 Hello all, I'm not new to oldschool but I haven't posted before. I have recently purchased a 1974 2.5 PI. (I'll try to add a few photos in as I go) sight unseen from Timaru no wof, no reg no worries? Anyway I sorted a few obvious problems. Including a non functioning alternator, a new airel and a door mirror just off the top of my head. And then got it down to see what it needs for a wof. It came back needing both lower balljoints, an adjust on a wheel bearing and a small bit of rust which turned out to be nothing! As I write this I'm waiting for some bushes to arrive. The rust has been fixed, the wheel bearing has been adjusted and one new front strut insert shock thingy has been fitted. I have fitted the balljoints into some spare lower arms I had and am waiting for bushes to arrive so I can fit them along with new bushes (radius arm and lower balljoint arm ones to be exact). I decided not to be tight and replace them all at the same time as I was taking it all apart anyway. I have also already got a white 1977 2500TC which has all the S goodies and even badges on. And she 1976 French blue TC which is being repaired body work wise and will be resprayed eventually. I hope to keep you all up to date with what's going on with these cars etc. I will also start a post over in the discussion area so we can all talk about it if you're that way inclined. 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KieranEbbettNZ Posted November 23, 2016 Author Share Posted November 23, 2016 Still haven't found time to get the photos sorted which I apologisenjoyed for. I have sadly discovered the Pi needs it's bottom end bebuilding. Feel free to give me suggestions on the discussion thread. Cheers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
