Yours is much better.  Never understood the 90 degree turn in the fill tube.

[flipmgtd]

Thanks, that is what I thought but wasn’t sure how involved it might be.

Have added pictures of my Ford based MGTD in my profile.  Would like to see it go to someone who will use and enjoy it.  It rarely gets on the road and i hate to see it just sit there.  Will make someone a great deal on it

[flipmgtd]

I have a Ford based one i am thinking of selling.  It is gelcoat white.  Contact me at 904 571 0026 if interested.

Do you still have the hood? Am interested

[flipmgtd]

I have a Ford based CMC kit and could use the hood if it fits.  What are you asking for it.

 

[flipmgtd]

I am interested if you still have these.  Can you text pictures to 904 571 0026.  I am in Jacksonville, Fl

[flipmgtd]

Do you still have the seats?

thanks

Very helpful, thanks.  Did you use connect the lower support to the frame using the threaded holes in the frame as suggested in the manual or weld directly to the frame?.

I am planning on getting a Mishimoto Honda Civic radiator because of the size and this mounting method should work for me.  For now am planning on keeping the belt driven fan.  Do you think this will be a cooling issue?

If you have a picture of how you tied in the upper mount to the headlight brackets that would be great

[flipmgtd]

How did you mount your Honda Civic radiator?  Looks like its size would be a good fit for the small space.  A picture would be great as I expect I will need to fabricate mounts.

Thanks

[flipmgtd]

Unbelievable.  I now see that I purchased the heavy duty radiator which is 4 inches wider than the one you referenced below.  When I check at Orielly’s both come up for the later years Pinto.  I didn’t notice the different dimensions when I purchased the first one thinking more cooling would be better here in Florida.  I really appreciate you solving this for me.

Think I will try to sell the wider one on fordpinto.com.

Thanks again

[flipmgtd]

I followed the manual instructions including cutting the front flange off but even with that the radiator is still several inches too wide.  The radiator I purchased is a 1979 Pinto direct replacement and the width is 20 1/4.  I maybe have 17 or18 inches at the most.  Perhaps there were two different Pinto radiators but all I found was this wide one.

I will look at the Honda civic suggested below.  Anyone need a new Pinto radiator missing the front flange?

Many thanks for all the information.  Once I get these parts this baby will be ready for the road.  I have the grill shell only need the cap and mount.

Sorry it has taken me so long to respond.  My address is 704 Shipwatch Drive  Jacksonville Fl  32225.  I will pay you a fair price for the headlight brackets  Thanks

On my original post regarding the fake chrome radiator cover, all I am missing is the radiator cap and mount.  Fortunately I have all of the remainder.

Is this still available.  IF so, what are you asking for it.

Thanks

[flipmgtd]

Any idea if this is still available.  I may be interested as I am building a ford kit and am missing many parts

[flipmgtd]

Thanks will try that location

[flipmgtd]

Thanks for the comments.  I think I will put them under the dash in a easy place to service.  Do you use relays for the headlights?  Plans I have don’t suggest one is needed.

[flipmgtd]

Thanks for all the comments.  Need to get a torch to do some serious bending!

[flipmgtd]

did you ever find a solution to your pedal placement issue.  I have a similar problem with my Ford based car.

[flipmgtd]

Thanks, a fellow member sent me one.

 

I love this forum
