'72 144 deluxe auto
Sorry to say I've broken the engine on my fine but tatty car and had to be recovered yesterday as power was getting less and less, there was a grinding/vibration under load and a rattling.
I've run this car for 8 months through all weathers and she has been super reliable but I don't have the time/skills/wallet to embark on getting her repaired. She starts and moves (just) but will need to be trailered away from Heathfield in E Sussex.
This note is just a signpost ahead of a more detailed post with photos and details of the car.
The MOT runs out this month I think, last year's advisory was 'some play in the steering' and she does wander about a bit, so I think track rod ends, or whatever will need to be done, but clearly that's not the issue here !
Anyway, stay tuned for more later. Once you have a better idea of the condition I would appreciate what you think she's worth.
Thanks Chris
