Martin's mx3 & Eunos Presso



  • @2bd344d9df=martin:

    On the mx I have fitted a new cam belt (cam belt kit from blueprint).
    What a f***ing job that was. :lol:

    Fun, ain't it? :D



  • did you get that other wing ?



  • yeah, got nice o/s/f wing in Black. So White one is now spare.
    Also got few other parts that are surplus to requirements (red door mirrors,dizzy 4 cyl,rear lights and more).
    Will post new thread tomorrow with what I've got. :)



  • cool dibs on the wing



  • No probs. The Black wing cost me £20 so am looking to get my money back on the White one. :)



  • sounds good to me

    haha nice one martin, see ya there fella…



  • Ok… Have a few pics of what I have been doing on my Presso.
    Was originally given it as it was thought that the cam belt had snapped (not that it makes much difference..lol).
    However as I started to take things apart I found that the water pump bearing was knackered, which then snapped the auxillary belt. This must then have caused the cam belt to jump a tooth (or 2) on the crank.
    Also have been cleaning up engine and engine bay(cleaning, painting etc).

    You can just about make out the yellow timing mark in the pic.The cams are all lined up and the crank is tooth out.

    I also managed to get a complete SE interior which I intend to put in the MX. I think I will probably have to get the front seats re-upholstered as the suede has oily hand and foot prints on it from the scrappy. I dont think any cleaning product will get oil and grease out of the suede.I wasn't expecting them to be mint as the price was a bargain.

    I also bought a job lot of spare parts from a Black mx that had been broken, including the 17" Team Dynamic alloys. These are a bit kerbed so will need to get them refurbed.

    The Headlamps I intend to put on the Presso to replace the plastic ones.

    Also acquired front and rear bumpers in black but both have cracks which would need to be plastic welded, Radiator, alternator, o/s front wing in black and Powerflow s/s rear section exhaust.



  • Reposting the pics that I inadvertantly moved on photobucket.
    The MX as it used to look :cry:
