doobietoo Posted October 26, 2016 Share Posted October 26, 2016 My mate who seems to be a magnet for interesting Shite has come across one of these.... In pogweazel pink with nasty sunburn on the bonnet and roof. I had a very quick scoot round it in the dusk and it doesn't look bad, no idea if it runs or drives but can throw some jump leads on it and take some pictures if anyone shows an interest. The reg is K781 LMM ... although there is a V5 with it....and a tax disc in the window from 2012. Normally I just pull off anything worth putting on ebay from his finds but bearing in mind how few of these are left thought I would offer it here first as either a restoration or as a complete parts car. Bear in mind the car is in Dorchester Dorset and will need taking away on a trailer. Alternatively if you want enough parts I can pull them off and post them to you No idea how much he wants for it, so just make a derisory offer and we can go from there Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve79 Posted October 26, 2016 Share Posted October 26, 2016 Some pics would be good. Had about 8 of these to date across twinsparks to the v6 12v and 24v. Could be tempted to give another one of these a go. Cheers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tabact Posted October 26, 2016 Share Posted October 26, 2016 Is the reg number correct? Tried K741 LMM on Cartell and that reg comes up as a Ford Fiesta Courier also comes up on DVLA site if you select Ford. Uncle Jimmy 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pete-M Posted October 27, 2016 Share Posted October 27, 2016 I've had a few 164s. Great cars. Check the rear beam mountings, they were one of the few rot spots on them. One of my 3.0s had needed welding there before it was 8 years old, so I'd check carefully on a 24 year old one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
doobietoo Posted October 28, 2016 Author Share Posted October 28, 2016 Pics as promised... I haven't started it as I am told it has a split petrol pipe but am told it will run and drive and should be able to suss it out and get it running if someone is seriously interested... as you can see I haven't cleaned it or tried to make it look better than it is..... It has a scuff in front of the right hand rear wheel arch which I have tried to show in the pics apart from that it seems pretty straight... I have no doubt it will need some work doing to get it MOTed but the price will reflect that .... I just don't like to see lovely old cars like this scrapped and would have it myself if I didn't have 3 projects on the go ...

Bren Posted October 28, 2016 Share Posted October 28, 2016 Those seats look almost french. If the underside is not like a rice crispy cake surely worth saving. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
surprisingskoda Posted October 28, 2016 Share Posted October 28, 2016 I've had a few of these and have a serious hankering for another red over black Cloverleaf. Fighting the urge to make a go of this with a spare set of 164 leather and 156 v6 engine... doobietoo 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
