New member restoration help!
Posted: Tue Oct 18, 2016 6:01 pmHello,
I have owned my 1975 Magnum 2300 for 40years. I used it as my daily transport until 1989 and then used during the summer until 1994. It has since been stored in my garage and received very little attention until 2012 when I started into some light restoration.
Present condition of my car is:
Bodywork: Sound except for front footwells, wings could be better but salvageable? I have replaced sill and rear wheel arch.
Engine: Turns over, was running perfectly recently but there appears to be an electrical fault so I can no longer get any electrical power at all.
Brakes: New calipers on front, I have a new master cylinder ready for fitting but the brake lines are proving hard to remove from the old one.
Suspension: Just needs new front shocks.
I would greatly appreciate if any 'local' (Anywhere in Northern Ireland - car is located in Co. Armagh) enthusiasts would be willing to help or give some advice on helping me complete this project.
I will reply to posts or PM me if you want any more information.
Many thanks in advance - Alan
