THE TO DO LIST

1 car has a miss/ hesitation  under heavy acceleration ( believe to possible be the timing chain is one tooth out )

2 rear springs have been reset and now don’t travel correctly (requires new springs to be fitted) have been looking into if Ford RTV rear springs would do the job as they are already a heavy duty lifted spring

3 heater does not work

4 diff ratio is too tall on take off for manual gear box,  (options already looked into are convert back to automatic car or change the diff gears to change to ratio)

5 recommend changing the power steering pump because it was run dry when the steering box failed last year

6 couple of the door handles have stopped working, believe they don’t need replacing and will just need adjusting inside the door

Car also has a boot full of spares like plugs, leads fuel pump good second hand alternator and starter motor, filter, belts cooling hoses and other bits and pieces
