Clapped out Posted January 17, 2015 Report Posted January 17, 2015 Hi and welcome, doesn't seem to be too bad after sitting for all those years, did it take much to get it started? Quote

Not at all. Just cleaned the gas tank and put a new fuel pump on it. Here is a link to a video of it running. Sorry for the crappy quality. http://vid693.photobucket.com/albums/vv293/punker0i/10879687_10204675888790204_1494934326_n.mp4 Edited January 17, 2015 by troyw Quote
Skellington Posted January 18, 2015 Report Posted January 18, 2015 Nice score. You will love the 2tc engine. They are bullet proof and will run fantastic when tuned up. I just got my TE27 ,also a 74, running after sitting in a tow yard for 10+ years. If you need any help with the T engine let me know. Yours has AC too! Quote

Yours has AC too! Yeah I'm really happy i got it and only for 550 bucks. I bought it from its original owner with 54000 miles. She parked it do to either a bad water pump or thermostat and never drove it again. Quote
