mr2 alternator removal

Got something to say, but it's not classic related? Here's the place to discuss. Also includes the once ever-so-popular word association thread... (although we've had to start from scratch with it - sorry!)

OMG, does this mean the end of this thread?!?!?!

Just think what new toy you could put in the space. There is a thread on here somewhere about how cheap the MG-F is, you could get one of those and a Hilux crew-cab.

Urgent Fiesta? :lol: Aye, vertically from a cliff top perhaps. Cute though, with its engine "très robuste". :D I like the MK1, simple, easy to mend, plenty of windows to see out of, etc.

About 4 hours ago.

The fiesta is "retro cool". Not sure it is something I would trust myself to own as I would only spoil it by putting a 2.4 duratec in.

I have one in the garage that was originally going to go in to a minor traveller (which turned out to be more rust than car). I have been looking at ebay for the last few months seeing what is cheap and interesting it would fit in. I have also discovered that you can buy after market manifolds for it to fit a turbo.........
