    Robin hood 2B

    Having to consider put up my Robin Hood 2B up for sale due to the new London ULEZ rules. Specs: Engine: Ford Pinto SOHC 2.0 Cam: Kent Ultimate Road (KCGTS1K) Carbs: Dual Weber DCOE 45's Exhaust: Simpsons stainless steel exhaust. Milage: currently says 10000 but have had a major overall of the engine only about 2000 miles ago. Runs on super unleaded but can run on normal unleaded. I am not the original builder but I have loads of building manuals and recipets form when it was built. Recently had a service with new oil and filter, drained and refreshed radiator coolant and has an MOT until 2024. Registered as an actual Robin Hood and on a ‘D’ plate not a ‘Q’ plate. It was been tuned on a dyno in its current condition and is making 140hp. (Have the print out from R.A.C.E.). Additional items: Full wet weather gear with Hood and Doors. Bike rack for the rear (if you want it) Spare cycle wings and new brackets from GBS – just didn’t get around to fitting them. ETB instruments to replace the Escort dash. (Tacho, speedometer, Fuel, Oil, Water) Various spares (like piping for cycle wings), fuel filters and others that I have replaced. Some things that need work: Some spidering and cracks in the fiberglass. They are small and cant see until you are close up. Small scratch on the windscreen, which should be able to be buffed out. Left cycle wing bracket needs to be replaced as broken a few times and rewelded. (have spares to do it.) Stone Guards have a crack and needs replacing (have a sheet to replace them with the parts) The Cam is almost run in and could do with checking the gaps in the lifters. Its been a great little runabout and never broken down on me and I will be sad to see it go, but I cant justify the constant cost of taking her out whenever I feel like it due to ULEZ. Looking for £5000 Please contact me if you have any further questions. I will add better pics on the weekend, but I wanted to just get some feelers out there. Update: Have added a pic of the engine and a video of it running. Also added a pic of the wet weather gear.
  6. Headlights are now sold. Willing to discuss offers for the other stuff ?
  7. They are sealed beams and no they were on my 2B.
  8. Hi all, Need to do a garage clean out due home improvementz. list is as follows Carburettor 32/36 with inlet manifold, linkage, air filter and cable: £150 Distributor complete with leads: £45 Square headlights (oxford blue): £25 Both working when I took them off the car as I replaced with upgraded parts. Happy to post at what it costs me or pick up from South west London Let me know if you have any further questions
  9. Hi, I want to change my top wishbones for the ones from GBS. The pack I am looking at is the double wishbone handling pack as it includes the top wishbones and the front cycle wing bracket. However my car has a non standard setup (see attached) and would like to know whether thr mounts on the chassis are standard and will fit the wishbones or whether they were part of the non-standard setup. Let me know if you need more information. Dale Car Measurements.pptx
  10. Hi all, I would like to replace my current exhaust as the manifold is very rusted and I think the silencer sounds like it has a hole in it. However I am torn between buying off the shelf such as http://www.kitcardirect.co.uk/ford-pinto-2-stainless-steel-4-to-1-exhaust-manifold-mk-indy-and-7-replica.html and https://www.kitspares.co.uk/index.php?route=product/product&path=43_24&product_id=854&car=43 as I would like a cat with the silencer. Or take it somewhere to get a new custom version, although I have heard a few horror stories of people who dont know what they are doing. I had thought on splashing out and getting simpsons exhaust to build me one, but the lead time and cost is something is making me think twice. Does anyone have any advice on what they have done ?

    Pinto won't start!

    Hey all thanks for the replies. I ended up taking out the spark plugs and gave them a clean and then checked all the leads etc plugged in correctly. Also checked the distributor cap was on the right way and she fired up as you can see. She was a bit stuttery when I took her for a run but after some redex and good blast she is running quite well again. I think the next thing I will do is put her on a dyno and tune the webers. Good to get back out and rolling again.
