Re-advertised as I had to revise the description / sale-options.
GENERAL DESCRIPTION:
Formula 27
SVA'd in 2004 using a pre-emissions engine and registered on an age-related plate ( 'V' ).
It was only driven a couple of hundred miles by the builder… most of them were to / from the MOT station!
He decided to emigrate earlier this year so I bought it... and immediately started tinkering with it... which means it hasn't done any miles since… and is in bits!
ENGINE:
3.5 Rover V8 (pre-emission, so no cats required).
Edelbrock Performer manifold.
Edelbrock 500cfm 4-barrel carb.
Edelbrock Elite 14" air cleaner.
Adjustable fuel-pressure valve.
Rover P6 short nose water pump.
Range Rover high volume oil pump with remote Mocal oil filter.
Lucas distributor with amplifier.
Lucas Speed-Leads.
Aluminium Radiator
GEARBOX:
3-speed Borg-Warner 66 with remote oil-cooler and B&M Pro-Ratchet shifter with cable.
CHASSIS:
Factory fabricated chassis.
Factory suspension pack (Inboard front upper rocker-arm and a 5-link rear on a MK V Cortina axle).
Adjustable AVO coil-over shocks all round.
RS2000 solid discs & calipers on the front.
9-inch drum brakes on the rear.
Factory fuel tank kit.
Factory windscreen.
Factory weather gear (hood, sticks, & doors).
Factory pedal box (auto).
Stainless roll bar.
Stainless aero-quip hoses.
BODYWORK:
GRP nose / wings (aluminium stone guards on rear wings).
INTERIOR:
Factory vinyl seats.
VDO electronic gauges (battery, fuel, volts, oil pressure, tachometer & self calibrating speedo).
Mountney steering wheel.
Willans 3-point harnesses.
WHEELS:
15inch Team Dynamics on 200 mile-old Kumho Ecsta's (195 x45 15 tyres).
CURRENT CONDITION:
Scuttle is tatty (treat as needing replaced).
No heater (up to you if you want to fit one... I wouldn't bother).
Footwells need old glue scraped off and re-trimmed.
The aluminium floor panel in the passenger footwell needs replaced or repaired (had a fight with a jack!).
Tunnel top needs fitting and trimmed (pre-cut sheet & carpet material supplied)
No rear cover.
No bonnet (I can provide an old F27 to measure up from).
Needs both radiator hoses.
Wiring may need renewing.
Paintwork is a bit rough (treat as needing painted).
Side-panels need fitted (new un-drilled flared ones supplied which you can trim down to whatever size you wish).
Needs full exhaust system (I can give you two P38 Manifolds if you want to fiddle with them. They are visible in the pics).
Needs intermediate steering column (approx 40cm of splined shaft and 2 UJ's).
Two of the short chassis diagonals near the scuttle were removed to allow engine fitment (treat as needing replaced).
And that's about that... a little work required, but easy to get on the road for Spring (or sooner if you don't mind the cold!).
Remember that this is SVA’d and was road registered with a pre-emission engine!!! It could save a lot of hassle (and money) to buy this and re-build to your taste rather than start a new kit!
