Hahaha yeah ive driven a few OSF and I love it, its just been so long that it feels like a life time ago.... I have to admit I was being a bit dramatic the other day, I was tired it was a long day and id just received my credit card bill!

Im only going on what they say, im doubtful of 200 but my last escort was a bog standard mk2 1.3gl and that never ran right, anything over 160bhp with my lsd will be a HUUUGGGEEE improvement on that! Hahaha

Hahaha so do I!

Il try in get up but my RS is my daily and as soon as its ready il be there

Welcome to OSF

I ended up buying one from Burton, Got a Bosch one, I hope its good as its set me back £230! Also got my new Exhaust system from Retro ford, Ordered Monday got here today, everytime hes so quick!!

Mike pretty much typed what I was going to type! Hahaha

Also spoke to Shepards tonight and there really getting a move on, its almost like subconsciously my rant helped!

Not anymore, its a 2.1 on 45's but il need to speak to Shepards to get a full spec list, I just told the guy who builds Shepards engines I want a pinto with around 200bhp and they seem to think it should make it but until the dyno happens! Tbh anywhere around 180-190 il be happy!

Welcome

Thanks for all the help, Im hoping for around 200bhp, well that's what they said it should make, would I still want a budget one or will they recommend one? just out of curiosity is the ignition 123 an actual make or is it accuspark? sorry may be another stupid question!

Got a call from the guys who built my engine and was informed that the ignition I need for my pinto is one called 123 ignition although im challenged when it comes to things like this, ive had a look around but had no luck, has anyone used this or know where I can get one?? I know this is probably a really stupid question but that's what forums are for! "He who asks a question is a fool for 5 minutes, He who does not ask the question is a fool forever"

Was it the one on Ebay by chance??? Looks nice!

Crusader?

Ive got a feeling its an Anglia

Thanks guys, I know you've all been there before! Its not just one problem its a combination of a few little ones, I get frustrated at how long its taking them to do it, I get annoyed that theres bubbles appearing, the amount of money ive spent and I don't even feel like I own it, I feel like I get a call to say I need to buy something but I don't feel like its mine!.... Ross I hadn't even thought about insuring it, there talking about a 200bhp pinto, im only 23 so I don't know how much that will be! I know in the end it will be worth it but it feels like forever away. I missed all last years shows with this car and the year before I missed it with my other mk2!! 2014 is my year, OSF, Beer, Good people and sunshine!! BRING IT ON!!

Ive had my RS since april last year, ive spent more money than I actually have and I feel like im never going to drive it!!!! PLEASE TELL ME ITS ALL WORTH IT IN THE END?!?!?! *Breath and repeat* A 2.1 pinto with 45's on full chat.........

Local show for me, any room on the reserve list for me

Amen to that, Il take a copy for my garage wall too

If i had the money id buy this in a heart beat, i know thats no help to you but i thought id say!

Hahaha if it were up to me it wouldve been done ages ago, its the guys ive got working on it that im waiting for!.....id say its a good 80% chance il be there, il know more by the end of the week

I ate all my spinach last night too and it was gooooooood

Id love to commit to this as i really want to go but i dont want to jynx my car being ready as ive missed about 6 deadlines:banghead:, as soon as its ready il book for sure!! :D:D:D

Hahahaha well last time i was in Amsterdam i ate about £50 worth of doughnuts so some swiss Chocolate would go down a treat :D:D
