Try taking the fan belt off for a QUICK ONLY run and see if the noise is still there as it may be just the fan scrapping on the fan housing or shat
generator bearings .
Other than that hows the throw out bearing adjusted / clutch adjustment as if thats constantly riding the preasure plate it will scream if dry and
stuffed .
Has the motor got eccesive end float , ie if you can grab hold of the bottom fan belt pulley and push and pull anymore than a fraction of movement
.04 thou for memory then it has bearing issues .
Lastly , hows the oil in the gearbox as if it's dry then the box mainshaft is spinning with no lubrication which will also cause a few unwanted
noises .
Basicully just have a good look around and as it's been sitting for 20 odd years , change all the oils and check the above
Don't let body work get in the way of real suspension travel
