I ordere polyurethane bushes from ebay. Im thinking if I buy new shock absorbers too.. ;D

Hello. I found some more rust in the car ??? In Ford Taunus there is a subframe where all front axles collectively are joined, also shock abrossers. So the subframe is attached to car's frame to four spots and there is bushes. I guess bushes were original so I can tell these we very loose and...

Thanks. That viscous fan hub is removed now. It was difficult to remove because I didnt realize it had converse thread and also hard to lock it still. Ill use electrical fan in car because then car will warm up faster in winters and also i think it is good if fan can also cool after engine is...

Ive been working on the engine block now. Got the parts and cylinders are machined now so I started to assembly it. I used old crank rods because they are strong up to 7500rpm and its enough to road use. Piston pins were pretty tightly in rods as usual but with heat and hydraulic press no...

Work in progress. Nothing really hapened lately. Engine parts came. I ported a cylinder head and took it to cylinderhead pro to finish valve seats. Well.. He noticed the cylinder head was wrong model of 1,6l pinto cylinder head. It was "e-max" head with thinner walls in intake and exhaust ports...

Thanks! Those rims are Wolfrace Slots, bolt pattern is 4x108. ;)

Both side skirts now done. Im satisfied. Before I start welding I took out everything inside the car. Its small work compared to fire inside the car. Few weeks ago my garage friend bought cheap ~300€, but good condition fiat punto with little rust spot in bottom. So he tought he weld it and go...

Thanks. Work in progress. I bought a bad condition Ford Sierra, and a spare motor. So I got two 2l pinto motors and Ford Sierra. Cost 50€ I took the block to machining and ordered parts to motor. Driver side skirt is now ready. Welded, filled and painted whole side skirt and stepboards. Im...

I've welded some spots. You can see I'm not pro welder but anyway it will do the trick. The front door's bottom is ready. I also painted it. Colour doesn't match 100% but I'm quite satisfied. I started side skirts also. In Previous post you can see condition. Other side was very rusted inside...

Few weeks ago I bought a mig welding machine. I decided to get small 170a mig from domeatic company Kemppi . I think it is just good for this kind of working like small sheet metal jobs and car repair welding. Suprise suprise, first thing i welded was small cart for it. About the car. Bottom...

There is some example of car condition. The car is old so body is rusted badly in some spots. Side skirts and back fenders are the most rusted. Bottom is good condition so its very nice. In Finland weather conditions are usually very vet and in winter there snow and ice. During winter they...

The motor is Pinto yes. There has been 1.3, 1.6, 1.8, and 2l pintos. These engines is with one camshaft. Also Ford has used 2,3l and 2,8l V6 motors, and if i remember right also ~4l v8 motor (its was rare, was it an africa model or something). I thought ill put a pinto 2l motor and tune it.

Since I finished my motorcycle project I wanted to start a new project. Last summer I bought 1973 Ford Taunus. That is the new project. Orginal condition is kind of well.. Alot of rust, engine is lazy and congested 1,6l ohc.

Today I was cleaning and painting my bikes engine. I thought to paint it black, cause it would be easier to "maintain" smart looking. It would oxidice too fast if i polished it only. Painted body and swing too. Also polished engine sides a little bit. I drop few tears today. Bikes last owner...
