Looks very nice

Your dashboard is beautiful. Something for me to aim for (I have been modifying mine for 3 years ) And where did you get the 'RH 20 SS' badge from, I defiantly want one of those.

They used to sell those letters in Halfords, probably still do

Thanks Stuart, good call. http://www.halfords.com/motoring/car-accessories/exterior-styling/chrome-letter-badge-s

Glad that I didn't have to help you out because the letters were already there when I bought the car

Thanks for all the compliments! I'll try to make this car even more beautiful!

All coming back now

Ford MT75 V6 Left hand drive variant modified to fit the Rover engine

Areas of concern were the non bearing spigot bearing fitted,a plain bronze tube, and a modification to the clutch trust bearing

Bell housing cut to fit Rover starter

[Guest toma94]

mmm... interesting

I'll get everything checked by my mechanic and hopefully we'll get my problem solved...

Do you know why rusty decided to go with a V6 mt75?

Thank you

[Guest toma94]

I searched for Rusty's posts in the forum and i found out that he changed the gearbox because the original one had problems with the 4th gear, exacly like me...
Maybe when he sold the car, he gave away the old gearbox too and the buyer fitted it into the car again..

How can I tell if I have the mt75 v6 or the normal mt75?

This website gives a lot of info on MT75 differences. See if you can spot yours.

And as I recall our bell housings were also carved around by RHE to fit the starter motor.

Thank you andy! I'll look after it asap!

All Ford gearboxes had 2 bellhousing bolt patterns

The gearbox for an inline 4 cylinder from Crossflow to Zetec were the same

The gearbox for the V6 engines from 3.0L Essex to 2.8/2.9 Cologne were the same

The V6 gearbox had a longer input shaft and the top 2 bellhousing bolts were closer together than the inline 4 gearbox

By the way i went to my local exhaust dealer.. I'll bring the car to him on monday morning and by monday night i'll have a new exhaust

today i felt the urge to wash her since i spent last night fixing the sump guard (it was too low), changing the cooling fan (with bigger one) and changing the engine coolant (it was all rusty)

so there she is, nice and clean !

 

 

 

She also drinks a lot, but i love her anyway
