Chris the hole you pointed out just had a thin bolt coming through, was a bodge job, it needs a good setup making, nothing else came with the car for rear mount
Hi Kevan, Thanks for confirming that. I suspect the hole in the bodywork and 4 small holes were actually part of a previous rear aerial (CB?) set up. I can just about make that out in an old rear view image but the present bracket isn't really of the best. I've posted it to the FB group and a follower is going to send a pic of his standard bracket which may or may not give me some ideas. One way or another I'll soon sort out an arrangement that works fine. All the hydraulic side is now done, and all the front end wiring with new headlights relayed direct off the battery to spare the old switchgear and wiring from any heavy loading. Doing the same with the twin horns. Now made up most of the exhaust in stainless keeping the 2 into 1 Transit front pipe set up. I avoided the Accuspark in favour of Bosch. The Weber is all fitted and needed a modified linkage. W screen in and all dash bonded back in along with heater, wipers, instruments etc. Pedal box in. Front seats in on new raised mounts. Still to look at s belts. Bought motor home type fabric lining to trim out the inside. Tank all plumbed in and line to carb via electric pump. The cut transmission tunnel all laminated back. Beginning to take shape and probably be test run around the grounds here next month after which I'll need to leave it aside again for a bit as the rest of the collection will need attention as the driving season for them begins. I never even saw a Rickman before let alone been in one so really no idea yet what I have. Hopefully it's something usable. I just fancied the challenge and it's been mostly straightforward. That ex EFI 202 late production engine is a fairly rare version many Pinto enthusiasts are ignorant about and you did well to find one. It's a big plus as is the alloy tank. Neat job moving engine mounts to the chassis rails. I obviously had to reverse the mod done for the auto gearbox mounts. Thanks again for letting me have this quite hard to find Space Ranger. Hope you are doing ok. Best, Chris
