Man I am gutted.Put the dizzy back in and it still won't start.I rang the motor dude and we have decided the car needs to go in to his workshop.He thinks it is the magnetic module in the dizzy and he has a spare one but if the cars there he can get it running.It's being picked up on Monday by a flatbed and dropped off.
I have told him it has to be fixed by the weekend as I really want to go on the dyno!Fingers crossed!!

Old car electrics are meant to be simple

Nah seriously that sucks Don, i hate s*** like that. Hopefully it gets sorted asap! I wanna hear it on the dyno

Hopefully when they put the module in the dizzy it will fire.They were supposed to replace the module last week when they had the dizzy but got it working by adjusting it.Certainly was a lot easier to work on when it had points.Damn technology

Well this is what it has come to.The "Old Girl" on a recovery truck.
The guy form "anytime towing" is a real Ford nut and gave me a $30 discount.His truck has airbag suspension so even low cars like mine go straight on.

haha wat a trailer queen! jjks hope she all gets sorted and ur out and about in her soon.

Good news I think.The car will be ready tomorrow complete with a new MSD Digital 6 ignition system.Anybody got a lazy grand sitting around they aren't using??????????

Good news Foz. So this might mean I will get to see it?

Hahaah.Its a bit like the Lockness Monster at the moment.There have been rumours of it for a while and some isolated sightings but if you go to the dyno day you WILL see it hahaha

in that case, i WILL be there haha. And OUCH! on the price haha

Great news My car is running finally.I'll have to wait till tomorrow to pick it up as I'm waiting around home for a delivery today.(new computer yay!!) I will also have to read up on the MSD Digital ignition I had fitted as it has a lot of features I'm not familiar with.
Xran can you go round and tuck the "Old Girl" in on your way home from work She doesn't like sleeping away from home

YAY!! car is back home and running OK.Was a bit rough at first coz I think the plugs may of been fouled a bit from all the cranking and not starting.A couple of test trips onto the new limiter and a bit of road buffing with the rear tyres and it seemed to clear itself.Will be very interesting to see how it goes on the dyno as I still think the carby is not set up right.Can't wait.

great news! hope all goes well on the dyno.

HEY FOZ ITS good to see you got your car sorted
took mine down the track tonight got a 12.0 but have tracion and carby dramas

Thanks Gerrin.Welcome to the club mate

Yeah good to hear its up and running foz! can't wait to hear this at the dyno day!!!
