Had this with seized rubber (stock) strut tops, but if you're on rollers I doubt that would be the cause.

Ebay is full of trolls nowadays.. probably not worth wasting any more time on this one. His feedback profile looks utter shit too.. ebay don't allow sellers to neg buyers, so we end up with twats like this having 100% positive feedback.

1. Acid bath and a respray. 2. Gearbox or Diff internals. 3. Taciturn, attractive 20 y/o blonde passenger seat cover, who doesn't mind earning her keep.

Lol, nice!

I wonder if they pay VAT on Pasties at their subsidised canteen in parliament?

Took it for a spin in the sunshine and enjoyed some of the err.. scenery.. around town.

Anyone remember the 'Backbone of Britain' ads from the good old days?

Hi guys. Something that's been playing on my mind since fitting lowering blocks to the Van; how tight should the Ubolts go? At the time I just tightened them up to "Good 'n' Tight", but I've started to doubt myself. Is there a specified torque setting for them, or am I just being obsessive?

Thought about what size and colour of sun strip would look nice. Stood in the garage looking at it for a minute, then thought "Na, too bloody warm today."

Do your bushes squeak? Mine sound like the Michelin man doing naughty things with a blow up doll.

I remember back in the 90s, when I was a teenager, getting a lift in one being driven by a complete maniac. Pretty damn scary if I'm honest, but maybe my opinion will be biased. (Truly thought I was going to die that night)

I'm running my Mk2 Van on JBW Minilites 13/7, -7et and 175/50/13s, with suspension lowered by 1".

Gaz shocks on the back of me Van, they were a fair bit cheaper than others. (For standard MK2 van you need shocks for MK1 escort with eyelet mounts on both ends to fit, and even then, mine need slight modification to geet them on)

Fitted Mk1 Escort GAZ rear shocks to my MK2 van - not a straight fit but easily remedied. Took her for a test drive, did some donuts, filled the tank, etc. Good to have it back on the road.
