May 28, 200521 yr comment_46190 ok, boys....just bought a 1982 TE72 2 dr sedan 3TC, t50, factory air. it's been sitting 4 years; i put a battery in it, turned the key, and it fired right up. it runs on 3 cylinders, but the compression is good....160-170 on all cylinders. it smokes some until it warms up, the carpet is ruined from the clutch master cylinder leaking, the carb is plugged up. my plan is to lower it 2", do the exhaust (no muffler on it now) weber, extractor, fix the a/c. i LOVE the way david's car turned out....fook's too. the whit with a black hood looks awesome. pics when i get them $250usd. *edit* oh yeah....his name is "Bubba" Edited May 28, 200521 yr by mikeys toy Report

June 13, 200521 yr Author comment_49941 ok boys, pic tomorrow i just put 250mi on bubba and have come to the conclusion he's a worn out pos..... that's ok, daisy was too when i got her problems; struts are blown, isolators are broken...the strut comes all the way out when i jack it up., the pitman arm is shot allowing 2" of steering play in either direction, the carb is snuffed... super lean primary. but everything works...even the rear defogger Report
June 13, 200521 yr comment_49986 nice, but we still need some pictures :) if you live in usa, why do you want rhd?? what is pitman arms? and what is the difference between your te72 and a ke70? except the engine etc.. Edited June 13, 200521 yr by David Report
June 13, 200521 yr Author comment_49997 i would love to know the differences....bubba uses sealed beam square headlights, not the composite units like yours....my front turn signals are amber RHD? why the hell not? NOBODY has rhd over here except postal jeeps Report
