Male to female transgender, that's why I'm losing lots of strength (no more testosterone). The Corsa power steering seems like a good option though, those parts are dirt cheap. I just need a way of connecting it to the current steering rack. Will call since wreckers next year. AFAIK nobody cares abo...

I own a 1979 mk3, I love that car and really don't want to sell it. The problem is that I'm transgender and I have lost a lot of strength in the last couple of months. Driving is fine, but parking is hellish at the moment. The car used to be a 1.6 but I replaced the engine with a 2liter one. I alrea...

And it's completely apart, next step: Machine shop

Don't think this needs any explaination, although the project is going really slow. I can only work on it on saturdays and only when nothing else comes up. https://i.imgur.com/Q4kCQQh.jpg https://i.imgur.com/uLTEQLN.jpg https://i.imgur.com/jgwcQ9X.jpg https://i.imgur.com/ST1oCKT.jpg I am facing a pr...

Long overdue for an update. Around Christmas I replaced the timing-belt and the washer. Cleaned the spark-plugs and put in a battery. The car ran right away. To make room to in the car, I simply cut the front out of the car. Kinda reminds me of Roadkill, but hey it works https://i.imgur.com/xpbxO7H....

Time for an update. So what’s up with the Scorpio? The previous owner did a lot of work to the car. He wanted to restore it completely. The guy has done a lot of welding on the car already, also put on new break lines, a new radiator, new tires and a new timing belt. Why did he stop? He told me he d...

Let me first introduce myself; I am Gerard Nieborg a webdeveloper from the Netherlands. A couple of years ago I bought my first car: a Ford Capri from 1979. Last summer I did a lot of work to the car to make it pass APK (MOT), it was mostly welding, fillier, sanding and painting. The car passed, wit...

Here's a picture of my 1979 Ford Capri MK3 1.6. The car has been standing in a shed for about 10 - 15 years. I bought it last year to restore. It's my first project car (well first own car), when I saw it, I just had to buy it. At this point it does have APK (our version of MOT), runs fine (I do wan...

I'm assuming this has been done a lot. I bought a second hand T9 gearbox for my Capri MK3 1.6. I know the current propshaft won't fit, does anyone have the details for the propshaft I'll need for this conversion?

Thanks, Gerard
