Stanky Posted December 7, 2017 Author Share Posted December 7, 2017 Anyone else fancy assisting the recovery of the Jago to my house this Saturday (9th December)? Tea, Coffee, Biscuits and pub lunch on offer for any willing volunteers. Plan to meet around midday and have it back by 3pm if possible. PM me for details. eddyramrod 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Datsuncog Posted December 7, 2017 Share Posted December 7, 2017 Found this last night in a 1984 copy of Kit Car mag. The fact that it's a Jago Geep, and not a JeepTM, makes it easily four times better. Sudsprint, Eddie Honda and Stanky 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mally Posted December 7, 2017 Share Posted December 7, 2017 I'm late to the party here, but I have built a few* Kit Cars.Looks in good order to me, not too difficult to fix.Needs soft or hardtop to be sensible = expense.Not reg = hassle and expense.There are many scrap available, some with documents. Please bear me in mind if you decide to break it.Am distant from you I think, but can offer £150 for the rear axle complete if it could find its way towards Manchester. For higher price there may be a tag on the diff nut with ratio on, could make it worth more to me.If no tag you could take the diff out and count the teeth.

Stanky Posted December 7, 2017 Author Share Posted December 7, 2017 Just thought, if you have spare points, or condensor that are to hand could you bring them along Dan? I'll be over the moon if we can get it to run. danthecapriman 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll be over the moon if we can get it to run.I've got at least one set of points and condenser for this engine in my toolbox. It's old but I know it works. Came off a mk2 Cortina 1600E. Which is the same lump as your one. I'll bring you that gasket set too, I bought it for my Pinto, opened it up without checking it was right first and found it was actually not for a Pinto! Too late to return it so you can have it. DeeJay, eddyramrod, Stanky and 1 other 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

danthecapriman Posted December 8, 2017 Share Posted December 8, 2017 I've found the points & condenser, and the gasket set. Gasket set is a bottom end set - might be no good for you but I'll bring it for you anyway, might be useful or at least odd gaskets etc from it might be. eddyramrod 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
