Four speed gearbox

Post by Noel »

Here is a 4 speed type E gearbox and bellhousing suitable for Mark 1 Capris with the 1600 crossflow engine.

I believe this was purchased from a well known Capri parts supplier (but not CCI) in about 2000 as a "just in case" spare for the two Mark 1s my father had at the time. It has 1.6 p/f marked on it, meaning pre-facelift which of course all had crossflows.
It was purchased as a good working used product, so I have no reason to believe there is anything wrong with it. It's been stored in a dry shed for the intervening years.
But, as I have no receipt or other way of proving its provenance, it will be £60 to whoever wants to pick it up from the mid Essex area near Great Dunmow.
Or you can pick it up from Twickenham if you give me some time to get it here.

I'll have that. That's a Type 3 by the way. :drive:

Type 3 - that'll teach me to read the identification info properly.

I've had one before, good positive change, fairly strong. I got the last one for 99p can you believe!
