I would be more suspect if the pinto was clean
 make sure you offer any useable donor parts to the sierra boys ( or I can do this for you ). Wel done on your first forum post ever. Another 20,000 and you will catch up on my combined total over the last 10 years TT

i would agree with twinturbo. it would be more suspect if it wasn't mucky they are old engines with cork gaskets so if they they have never been changed then its a normal sight
here is a picture of mine before i cleaned it all up and replaced all the gaskets  come out ok in the end though  welcome to the forum everyone here is very nice and helpful. at the top of each page there is a search button that will drag up the answers to most questions if not then just start a new thread and ask. you will soon get the hang of it. make sure you check out the Book Amendments and Extra Guides Section as it will make life easier when starting to fabricate stuff. http://www.haynes.co.uk/forums/showthread.php?t=2430 Last edited by AshG : 2nd March 2010 at 11:57 PM.

Bienveneu David.
Good luck with your build. Sounds like you're off to a flying start, with a donor already. Don't forget to ask plenty of questions. No matter how silly they seem to be. There is no such thing as a stupid question if you don't know the answer. Beleive me I've asked a few....  You say it's your first post anywere. Well you found the right forum then We are more like a big huggly family than the the normal forum you'll find. We don't even need a Moderator to keep us inline.. We got Handyandy...  Ps. Where are you located?

Welcome to the forum David,
As others have said, its a great forum, very friendly bunch of like minded car builders (nutters) You,ll soon be stripping your donor & wondering "do i need this bit, do i need that bit"? ask questions & you will get the correct helpful answers, one thing you don,t need is any glass from the donor, good luck with your build & remember to enjoy it, as for me keeping everyone in line??????? after a few beers at stoneleigh last year..........us lot could only muster up a zig zag line enjoy the forum & the experience of building your own car. cheers andy
