Default Pinto 205 for sale

Hi Everyone. I have a Pinto 205 engine for sale. Reason being I'm having a clear out and need the cash for my roadster. I am in Nottingham.

So the engine can be seen running as I have put it into a sierra on my drive. To cut a long story short I bought this engine as a project to rebuild. It does not come with an alternator, radiator or engine mounts. I was suprised to see how smooth she can after changing the camshaft cover gasket as she hasnt run in atleast a year. The pic show a different exhaust manifold and carb as i couldnt get the originals (which are in my garage) to mate upto the sierra kit.

Any questions feel free as I have never sold an engine before. Also not sure what amount to ask for and I know thats irritating for a forsale post sorry
