Hi Vista I met Andy Harris back in 1977, I was still at school, and my mate was working at ATS tyre bay in Carshalton. Anyway he rolled in with this Black Zephyr Mk1. I was inspred...at 16 I bought a Cortina 1600E and with help put a Corsair 2.0 V4 in and then before I was 17 Andy helped me install a Capri V6 engine & box- a Savage Cortina -great first car lol.

Thanks Banarama Great looking Escort!

Hi I'm Dean Rinaldi. My passion, alongside modified cars, is to write both fiction and non fiction books. An entrepreneur with an interest in media and entertainment has expressed a positive interest in producing a film in the UK. They particularly like King of the Streets which is a modern day Quadrophenia with Oldskool Street Racers battling Modders against a back drop of underworld crime,drugs,violence,sex and...illegal street racing. My chosen genre is crime & illegal street racing and I've set out to be number one in this literary field. My next book is Britain's Street Racing legends and it will be released in May 2012 as paperback (with lots of pics) and ebook. The publication features armed robbery getaway drivers, highly organised 160mph+ illegal street races and features the men that have built and raced the fastest street legal cars in the UK, Europe and the World. Their stories will shock and astound you in equal measure! I have a another fiction book planed for later in the year 'Savage: The Seventies.' Its a kind of Ricky Gervais 'Cemetery Junction meets The Fast & Furious' A teenage 'coming of age' novel set during that glorious summer heatwave of 1976. Well that's pretty much me lol, Its good to be here
