  1. How about a MK2 Fiesta Section in OLD SKOOL FORD GARAGE & TECHNICAL section
  2. email updated, put it down to old age
  3. Well it would be a welcome move as there is no where for us MK2 Fiesta owners to go, First job is to get it roadworthy and solid and see how it goes.
  4. Hello all, Returned to classic ford ownership with a mk2 Fiesta, all others are to expensive now, will there come a time when the MK2 Fiesta will be accepted on this site?
  5. Just thought I would let you know having obtained a STD Escort box that you are 100 % correct the type 3 gearbox is 3" longer, thanks for your help and advice.
  6. Hello, As title I am looking for a sandwich plate for a Ford Crossflow Engine MK2 Escort, thanks
  7. Well that may be my problem, thanks for your help and advice.
  8. Thanks, yes I see what you say but can we be sure that the Type 3 is the same length as the 5 speed
  9. Thanks not what I need, Type 2 gearbox and Type 3 are both 4 speed, I need to know the overall lengths of these gearboxes.
  10. Can anyone tell me the overall length of a type 2 and a type 3 Ford gearbox, thanks
  11. deposit taken
  12. Due to impending house move, buying an old house and some health issues my MK1 either will be sold or go into storage. Started as LHD shell, now 100% solid, all repairs carried out to a good standard, 1600cc crossflow, std box , english axel, Lots of new parts See pictures, more available, Car is in Cornwall, £8,750
  13. Yes I probably will use that and thanks for the link, I am hoping that the carb I am getting from colr6 will see me up and running, with a pending house move and a loss of enthusiasm due to many things you may see a MK1 2 Door up for sale 🤔😢
  14. Seem to have opened a can of worms, I accept the S/H ones will need cleaning,checking and will be worn but to get this car running I will accept those problems would just like to know if any of the ebay carbs are suitable for 1600cc crossflow, if anybody can advise on these and others on ebay or if someone on here has one for sale or can advise me on how to identify, no disrespect not sure on Chinese, thanks again
  15. Another one, https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/235208846905?hash=item36c38a2e39%3Ag%3AQ6IAAOSwPn5kfKz7&amdata=enc%3AAQAIAAAA8FD2zHYx39JBAVLkxHYSmP9buoKzv5cLNrZrkvVS72DFzXZuChafOsAI1JgUFMqIbmAzhJDw2Z9yJ7QFjX%2FdelJmV6EAkQniZ1qcMQNlHTUPJ3tTEGi77Kw4GgfQL97c%2BQUGHBBZywpfyINQ8Ueo5iot3%2Fm9CcJBpIVyZm174HtKUVg3dbLI3avPY7hxFFQ%2Bv1idDGtW0htQhwB7ClieGVSPZPltPTScBCkaVzjmJpPifx1QnRGK%2Bfyt%2BbkFMlHjMLJdJuGUL4l1t%2BSQE3xQSH1HRSQosYLCMj1g34r4%2BSckUA0VI7H2Gf4eG6XvOstJrA%3D%3D|tkp%3ABk9SR_729NzcYg&LH_ItemCondition=4
  16. Thanks again, I am not in the position to purchase new, are these any good. https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/175917810878?hash=item28f584c4be%3Ag%3AqrsAAOSwXIhktDGE&amdata=enc%3AAQAIAAAA0GIj9onkzZbjL83%2BR%2FIQ%2FhTP8bHIzd9MBPg9%2BhhDaONgvdPmt40FAV%2BlxW5qm9xxbo41ln41ucuzkBdAyrntgO1EAYnCYxnxGAcx7j70mi6dvtnJd5%2FXWdYr5%2Bqn8LIlXEEpwUYvCxJhEzt%2BH1vbjKdM%2Bbw4cMN%2BTsmtxHcMDIwY5935yXrFm5fdZEK%2Btgff4CLyISCJqgNV2udlECIaDeSdsT%2B4d7qPNVYbZ4M4Dr3K%2BVaqnqe8OFQQ%2BEO1ocCfdjSEMNeSctQ31ssrKuvNnEI%3D|tkp%3ABk9SR_z29NzcYg&LH_ItemCondition=4
  17. Thanks to all, Carb is stamped 32/36 DGAV, As for manifold my mistake, I have to admit to becoming bogged down in this project, old age, pending house move and an inability to see the obvious. I have messed with old cars all my life but never expected the difficulty in building a car from a rusty shell as we all know MK1 Parts are at a premium, in view of this you are at the mercy of ebay not always the best place to purchase from. thanks again
  18. Thanks for pics, Carb is 32/36 DGAV pictures of carb and manifold enclosed, Pedel is std mk1, thanks
  19. OK, Will do I thought it was more straight forward my mistake will take pic tomorrow, Engine is 1600 crossflow, thanks
  20. Sorry Picture of Carb enclosed, thanks
  21. Thanks for reply, I should have made it clearer, I have a weber carb and an accelerator pedal and nothing else I realise cable is available, thanks
  22. Looking for Throttle linkage for Mk1 / Mk2 Escort I realise they are different MK2 Crossflow, weber carb fitted in Mk1 or something I can modify, thanks
  23. £350 It is in the way if anyone interested, could try to find a pallet if you wish to send a courier.
