    That's a very rare car and it runs sweet ! - Not many of these came auto back in the day and there are not many left on UK's roads now so well done buying it and saving it - Shame about the floor and bodywork - I'm pretty confident you'll get it sorted soon and get it all restored to it's formal glory ! - I always liked these great old cars along with the old British Leyland / Austin Rover cars - All the best of luck with this great project ! - Keep the great videos coming ! 👍👍👍😎

    You don't see these now not a barn find the paint has had it and looks a good engine bay it's just depends how bad 😅underneath and the bottom of the doors boot lid wheel archs and sills but they are really rare because like any vehicles of that generation is rust hopefully you do get it back on the road even if it isn't in perfect looking but I will need welding so hope you are good at welding but I will stick to my focus MK1 with 30 thousand miles with service history and I don't need to get my welder out yet

      Hi. Engine bay and the boot is in very good nick. Underneath needs attention for sure. Might not be perfect when I fixed it up. Long as it`s in a good standard and I`m not afraid to use it then. If you spend 5 years restore it to concourse then you will be scared to drive it anywhere. Focus mk1 becoming rare these day :)

  • @denisharvey2507
    @denisharvey2507 Місяць тому

    Great to see another barn find being rescued and hear it running, but, having checked for spark, lubed the bores, checked for fuel and got the starter freed off, I would respectfully make some suggestions first and foremost you should have dropped the over filled "oil" and replaced with new plus filter (as it may be collapsed) blocked. As the old "oil" has had 20 or so years to settle it was pointless try to start it and spreading all the contaminated around a dry engine, pouring in new oil at the filler of the engine would have coated all the valve gear, cam, cam chain, right down throughout the galleries and the oil pump pickup tube would have sucked new oil in and pushed it throughout the galleries and bearings, I'd then recommend cranking it over with plugs out thereby, less stress on the starter and all bearings, pistons bores and cam are getting lubed up before being loaded. The reason it ran was the spray down the throat which means the carburettors/float chambers are empty and probably blocked with 20 years of crud! You managed to get it partially cleared by persisting to crank with the starter for much too long. A new starter motor £100 to £250, patience cost but a little time! And don't drive it with the rachet strap hanging round the back bumper thowe bumpers not cheap or easy to find a good one😆 keep up the good work looking forward to seeing more progress with this one. Just in the process of recommissioning a Triumph myself!👍😁

    • @OldSkullGarage-MotoringShow
      @OldSkullGarage-MotoringShow Місяць тому

      Hi. Thanks for the long and detailed comment. You're right. I should change the oil. But the oil looked clean enough. At the time, I didn't know whether the engine was sized. or not. My personal opinion is that no point to throw many at something is not working. Actually I'm not filmed everything, but I did tuned the engine over without the spark plug. I always do this way when I do a barn find. So, it builds up oil pressure. I used to rebuild start motors. So, in actual real time, the filming took place around 5-6 hours altogether. So I made plenty of coups of tea 😊 in the time starter cooling down. But as you might know. Man gets carried away when you getting close to starting a car 😜 There will be a lot of updates coming up regarding this car on my other channel. What exactly are you restoring at the moment ?

    • @OldSkullGarage-MotoringShow
      @OldSkullGarage-MotoringShow Місяць тому

      I don't have a borse scoop at the mixture. But when I put petrol in, there was no rust or dirt coming through the system . I pretty sure the petrol thank was completely dry. I think that's saved the tank. But when I start building the car. I will do a lot more investigation about it. Hopefully, the bodywork will be repaired in the next few months, and then I will do the rest of the build.

    Nice. Around 1986, my brother bought a Triumph 2000 just like this, same reg 'K' reg, and same colour. He won it for £300 ( about £1100 in today's money), at Southampton Car Auctions. That Damson colour was a quite popular Triumph colour in the mid-70's. I recall that quite a number of TR6's were damson.

    Id would have pressurised the tank by using a bunch of rags plugging the filler hole and using my compressor and airgun fill it with air , the pressure should force fuel up to the carbs without straining the motor .

      That's a good idea. But this time, I haven't had any of it. Hopefully, next time, I will be more geared up 😊

      That's my plan. Like to save it. Once it is fixed up. I think it will be a nice cruiser 👍

    1000 quid ...... its worth approx 200 at best. They never really reached collector status. Had 2 ..... the 2000 and the 2.5 with the overdrive gearbox.

      I think that was a long time ago when they were worth £200. I do like all the paperwork to come with the car. There are bad spots on it. But also a lot of good things about. I am going to try to save it .

      Oh dear, that's a shame. The engine sounds sweet in this one. I know it is going to be a long road ahead to fix the body work. But I love this shape. More I look at it more I like it 😁 I hope you do not lent any more cars to your friend anymore 😁🤣

      Back in the very early seventies, I'm sure that I saw a Capri in white - with a black and white chequered vinyl roof. I would like to see the collection as well. A personal modification or factory/converters addition ?

    It's funny, I found this channel when looking for videos about the Fiat 126. I watched that one, set in Hungary (where I used the live from 2011 to 2018), then found this video set in Evesham, near where I was born! A Mk 1 Escort was my first car after passing the test in 1982 but they were dirt cheap back then.

      Hi. Wow. Small world. I member years ago I use to work in Twigworth breakers(Long gone now) doing sales. They told me many years ago use to pay 20 quid for mk1 Escorts. Video coming out this Sunday 5pm. That's was filmed near Evesham as well.

    I watched the road test and thought, that looks like Hungary, there is something distinctive about the architecture.

      Hi. Yes that`s right. Was filmed in Hungary. If you ever been you can spot the architecture strait away.
