hi mate are you still after a gearbox????.... iv got one came from a late sierra 1600... £150.....

hi mate iv got a complete e max 1600 pinto it needs a rebuild tho..... the engine came out of a trike that had been sitting for a while with no carbs on it so the bores got water in them... its seized.... I'm in eastwood in essex make me a offer...

theres a few that will be able to afford to buy and run a old ford with the help of good mates and family but to most the cars are out of reach..i know theres still the rare find to be had and the lucky family owed cars passed down..... but people don't want to pay £1500 for sheds of mk2 4drs or £5000 for tatty 2drs......but im also not just talking about the prices id like to ask the mods if they have seen a reduction in usage/traffic on this site???....another site I used to use a lot seems to have died a death in the last year or so.....

ok guys I know that shows are still goin well but I feel the the old ford scene has peaked.. old school fords aren't the cheap fun toys they once were, you cant take them out and park them and leave them to go shopping for fear of them being nicked, you cant leave them on your drive in case they are towed off by some scumbag.....if your after buying one your gona pay a small fortune more if its a mk1 or mk2 2dr escort!!!...if you want to buy parts people are asking the earth...of the few mates I know who have one they either have them hidden away haven't worked on them for ages or cant afford too or are selling them......I myself have 3 escorts and have spent a hell of a lot of money on them over the last few years....so I was just wondering what your thoughts are????.....

just a quick question......when I click on the link for this in the events section........it says its on the 19th not the 11th????.......or am I goin mad????..lol..

I only ask cos my mum called me last night when I was at the meet and I mentioned that the big boys (you and the other v8 powerd cars where just coming in and when I said ford fever she knew the car and said it was one of normans.......

only cos you don't want to...im sure that will leave rubber wiv the best of them fella!!!!!..lol.....was it built by norman wielding????

think most of us have given it the beans when pullin out a meet at one time or another.........but as said before this was more than that........so wheres these pics????

how about we get some pics posted up of some of the cars from last night to show how busy it was and what a great job Paul done????.....

I feckin luv your car mate!!!!!

that's not gona be good for some people........

first car to give it the large was a nice mk2.....its what happens when a lot of car nuts get together it did to be fair get a bit silly and I nearly lost a eye when the real nice 3dr was having it from the stones it was flicking up...I hope pauls car didn't get any damage.....it was a top meet tho will defo be at the next one if it is still allowed to happen....

a A3 cam kit for my crossflow and a full gasket set.....

has anyone got a number for phil??....iv pm'd him but no reply.....

hi mate where abouts are you im selling a mk2 escort van but im in Essex........heres a link http://www.turbosport.co.uk/showthread.php?t=299125

thanks boss.

Retards Club sucks........ this has got to be worth thinking about??...it just adds to the osf site....

and how many members does OSF have now???...its what they have on TURBOSPORT but it is for site supporters only...like a perk of being a supporter.....could be a good idea???...

i was just wondering why OSF site dosent have a chabox like the other popular ford site does???..the amount of members you have you might need chat room??....you might get more site supporters and its nice to log in and have a chat wiv people..... what do you recon??

if you can get a bigger stand i'll like to be on it???...only down the road from the show...

hi mate welcome to OSF theres a scruffy mk2 4dr on ebay thats quite cheap.... be a perfect sleeper with that redtop in it!!!
