Tony B Posted November 29, 2011 Share Posted November 29, 2011 The running gear id Ford. A mate had one for years, it was running aroumnd Sidcup. I'll try and get hold of him and ask. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Adr1an Posted November 29, 2011 Share Posted November 29, 2011 Hi there, As Tony says, the running gear (on the one I had) was Ford, with a 1300 Xflow engine and four speed Escort / Cortina gearbox. I am pretty sure the back axle (and therefore the brakes) were a fork lift truck part. I sold mine with a shot master cylinder and weeping wheel cylinders to my friend Debbie so I'll try to find out what she did with it. I know she got it all going again. FYI the steering box / column was early Transit so there was obviously a lot of Ford parts bin raiding going on. After all, FMW used to assemble similar trucks for Mercury and when Mercury went under in the 1960s they simply built the whole thing and put their name on it. I have a mid 1930's Mercury and all the same parts are Ford!:-D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
