Manco XTK-710E Restoration

[ResilientMonkey]

Hey folks! I picked up a Manco XTK-710E off a guy I work with. I don't know how much I paid for it though - he just dropped it off and said we'll figure it out later!

Anyway, it's been sitting a few years so it needs a bit of work. It also ran into a tree at full throttle (with no-one in it) Throttle cable was stuck. Luckily it only damaged the front of the roll cage.

Thats very nice! All it needs is some TLC! Nice job! Your 40 series torque converter looks a tad rusty though!

Yeah, it's gonna need a bit more than cleaning! But I think it'll clean up okay - I've got to watch some videos about cleaning up rusty torque converters.

Look at pic 2. It is sort of just dangling of the end there

Oh, the cooling fan! That is factory installed. There is a vent on the TC cover too. I guess they ran hot. It is warped though and it looks like the replacement is metal so it should last longer.
