Chur boes EDIT: the rims will look kinda like that now. i think. my paint skills = ftl

got bored so threw some blocks in and compressed the front springs. wagons been mine for about 6 months or so, sister never showed any interest in it also, put sounds in, mp3 heady and some 6x9s

oh yeah im still alive. been busy as a motherfucker/misses cheated on me last night so im resorting to some e-g33kness pulled the beast off the road due to a snapped accelerator cable and found.... engine mounts were non existent...motor was basically sitting on the power steering pump dodgy as. earth lead was wearing through in heaps of places, and was wrapped around steering rack, causing the electrics to cut out while turning right on hard lock. so i whipped the head off, scraped the large amounts of carbon deposits off the top of the pistons and the valves etc. gave the head a port & polish. while i was at it i discovered at some point shes had a recondition and has been bored out to around 2.7 litres. size 40 slugs etc ripped carbs off and replaced the standard butterflies (shitty springs in em were stuck open aiding in the running on) with some brand new ones minus the spring. got some K&N style pancake filters off my Dads MGA that im gonna chuck on, and have nice stainless muff to chuck on (no, not a fart cannon) should be all sussed in a few weeks, running alot smoother EDIT: cellphone photo ftl

haha so very, very true

= very similar to what mine will turn out like mine is rocking some 18inch Sacci rims at the moment oh yeah and i snapped the accelerator cable

Almost certainly. These blocks were all the same bore, and varying cranks were used to change the capacity. If it's *not* a 1600, then it could be worth lots! Is is a 4 or 6 bolt crank? Whatever, it's the best of the (usual) early 60's kent blocks, but not as good as a 711M. havent pulled it apart yet so cant tell ya, will rip her apart sometime this month

haha so in other words its a 1600? me4n cheers for the help guys, much appreciated

full code is 681F 6015DA what is it???

yeah mate, Gloss Black is the plan. yeah mate will do, should be sometime within the next few months, fingers crossed. cheers for that hint CUL8R, i might go check that tomorrow morning

nothing major, have an old school style stainless muffler which will be chucked on the rear, and i want it lower...if i win lotto i will paint it & chuck some big rims on but hey - noones invented a money tree yet

looks like a D to me!!!i shall get the full code for you guys soon

usually, got timing checked out, was only 5 deg out. Dad seems to think it is because 1) the cylinders need a decoke (it only runs on when warm, therefore the carbon deposits in the cylinders are still glowing red hot , providing the "spark" and 2) because the carbs need a tune & they are still stuck open or something, providing the engine with fuel even when turned off??? Flange you bastard...wanna swap?

hey dudes, code ends with a "DA" any help???

how do you tell a 1300 from a 1600??? i have a motor i picked up from the neighbours...we suspect it came from a Mk2 Ghia, but we arent 100% sure. does the "code" along the side of the block tell you?

you are a bastard. that is fucking amazing. i'd ditch the twins cannons & run a dumpy but hey its your car give it to me kthnx<3

yeap thats the plan. as for the filthy colour, that aint staying long. people must be like OMGWTF when they see me drive past with wife beater, tattoos & a beard

haha get fucked. i'll reserve that sorta shit for my other cars. this car is for cruising the running on?i reckon the carbs are stuck open a bit or some shiznit. idles waaaaay higher in Neutral as opposed to Reverse or Drive soooo yeah im gonna pull apart the carbs sometime in the near future. gets rather embarrassing sitting there in town with it still chugging away also, air intake pipe will never stay on, goddammit. attepted to cable tie the fucker on, but its rather difficult at the bottom front left brake pad only has like a few centimetres left, so went out & bought some Ferrodo brake pads & also a new battery engine piccie is up now m34n b03z

no chromies either, you faggot

yeah it would be awesome if it was manual aye. nah nah im pretty easy on the boot, driveshaft vibrates pretty hard when at high speed and you let off the gas a bit have some plans which none of you will like im sure, but hey its my car. and no im not gonna tang it, put it on trailer wheels or spray it matte black

1977 Triumph 2500TC 2.5L straight six, twin SU carbs, auto 124,000 kms Mods as of now: compressed springs (bought like that, has a bit of negative camber in the rear ) 2500 "S" alloys or some shit, pretty kool. nice NEW tires too. chrome rocker cover & thermostat housing got her for $500, with fried battery leads etc payed $300 to fix all that, so yeah a good car for $800 mint body, no dents, scratches or rust has a few electrical problems but all easy fixes ive had her for 2 months now, been on a few long distance trips, a fucking beast. runs on like a MOTHERFUCKER though

yes its still alive. got quarterlite. will be legal this week high 5

pr0n i could thrash myself over this

fully. makkin' biznitches like that mofo word.
