2.8 V6
Engine: 2.8 V6 Cologne engine – this is a carbed engine and not injection (much better ). Runs perfect, starts every time and is very very growly! Origonal ford rocker covers (rare) As a V6 she does sound amazing! Ticks over very nicely, never over heats. Full rebuild done in March. New alternator fitted in march. Plus so many engine spares and other spares!
