They do exist :!:

But was NEVER available in the UK :!:

The only (official) smiley auto was a 85PS turbo diesel :roll:

For some reason or other, you didn't have an engine choice :roll:

If you wanted a smiley auto from a Ford dealer it had to be the 85PS turbo diesel :roll:

Whether it was a short wheel base low roof or a HiCube 17 seater minibus, auto with that 85PS oil burner only :!:

Nothing stopping you converting one :idea:

I was considering a conversion.
Not seen a box for sale yet.
Guess I would need torque converter, gear lever, vacuum pipe.
Maybe propshaft, gearbox cross member, flywheel.
How about axle flange, starter inhibit link. What else?

Why not buy a complete and testable Sierra/Granada/Scorpio :idea:

But remember :!:

There are no less than 3 main variants of this box :!:

by **mickreeves** » Thu Nov 23, 2006 8:35 pm

Good idea, but means extra work and trouble getting rid of the remains. Also other parts less likely to fit mine.
Any clues as to the three types?

A4ld =vacuum controlled

A4lde =partially electronically controlled

(like mine

) ECU controlled
A4ldE =fully electronically controlled :shock:

ECU controlled (post '93/4 Granada/Scorpios (except the 12v one

)
