I have not rolling road tested the new engine but it is significantly quicker the previous, box standard, pinto. According to Snapper this should put out about 135bhp. It is currently running a 38/38 DGAV (3 litre Capri carb) and may deliver more with twin 45s or good bike carbs. Beyond this more bhp could be released by fitting larger valves and a bit of head work.

Caster, camber, toe in and corner ride heights were kidly checked and setup by IndyBird on the forum.


A good useable road going 7 that can be driven and enjoyed as it is for years - or a platform for further upgrades for someone who wants to start with a ready built MK Indy and put their own stamp on it.

Viewing is recommended.

MOT to May (I can put a full year's MOT on it if required). Tax is to June


I am open to offers from LCB owners, the nearest this happens to be to £5k the more likely I am to agree.

I might consider an early MX5 in part exchange (as I will need a project to keep me sane).

I am sadly having to sell due to lack of family funds.

What do you think- priced right ?

The price looks right to me - you certainly couldn't build it for that.

I guess the Pinto may put some people off, but it would make a great base for a Duratech conversion.

Good luck with the sale.

Hi I'm interested, PM sent
thks

Have a bump from me.

Looks like a very nice, usable car (from the photos at least!).

I'd be very interested to come and have a look but I wouldn't be in a position to buy until, I expect, later next month so I won't waste your time at the moment but I'll keep an eye on the advert and see what happens over the next few weeks personally.

Good luck with the sale.

bump.

Now sold.
