Bry with a y

wow amazing

Hi Vince be good to meet u at shows

Love the interior hi from wales

Immigrants that look you up and down in your own street that you lived in all your life!

Hi looking for the original nut that tightens carb cover on, or a carb cover with original nut. Pm please if you have one for sale cheers

Mine is a 1.1 super,what are u gonna do with engine? I could prob salvage bits if your ditching it or selling?? Cheers

Can u add me plz?

Is it ok to trek up from south Wales and meet u all? If so if anybody is going from my end of the woods and plan a convoy up I'm defo up for it?

Amazing find..was it the 1.1 super or 1.3??

Thanks that is sound advice

I have now got the mk1 running good and stopping good..The little 1.1 is ticking like a clock and I'm in two minds whether to bring to show untouched as I found her or carry on with getting front seat padded back like new,and front carpets need changing. Slight bubbles on headlight and little stone chip on door and tidy engine bay up..Things I will do but do I just bring her out after a good clean and Polish? I do want people to see her like I found her and get some good advice off u guys at the shows but what's best to do in your opinion? Cheers

Got all the cylinders and shoes replaced today as I did go through a red light as my brake pedal was as much use as a handbrake in a canoe was thinking it was master cylinder but that hasn't been replaced very long, cheers for mike in pontypool who is old skool mechanic to fix them on.. On to the next to get her running sweet for show time..I will post another question on what to do for the mk1

Good advice!! Fire extinguisher no1 priority

Took my girl out yesterday for a short trip to garage for some servicing,got half way and a real strong smell of petrol coming through vent and car was juddering like no fuels was getting in. So coasted her to garage and my mate lifted carb cover off to find the carb housing was squiting petrol out of a broken seal He said very lucky it didn't squirt on a hot part and boom up she would have gone aaahhhh!! luckily the service carried on and he ordered in a carb kit to fix it so now after new oil,sparks and leads,coil etc she's running sweet.. Although the new shiny parts do stand out a bit in engine bay,so next job get car detailed and a good clean under bonnet

Hi and welcome

She is just having a service today with oil, coilpack and sparkplug change and get her running good as its a bit lumpy through gears. Its on 77 thousand mark...Also needs a bit of stuffing in front drivers seat and front carpet will need replacing in time. Rear carpet and roof-lining both in mint condition as well as all other seats in car. Thanks for your kind comment.

Those are defo ladies French knickers! Look mint on a hourglass shape of a doris :b but now that's put me off them seeing buffalo bill out of silence of the lambs got them on lmao..

Obviously you know your stuff about fords as I was still in nursery back then lol.. Well if someone has pointed out it's had this or that done to it then FairPlay,I would like an expert to say yes bry that's been replaced there or whatever but what I know of car it's basically been drove by a little lady all those years and put back in garage under a sheet and when she got to old to drive it, it would come out for service and mots and put back in garage..to me that sounds original in itself. I will be bringing the escort to shows just so I can pick up on knowledge if it's not as seems, I know it hasn't been welded underneath as Mot guy went through it with fine tooth comb.. Love car shows so can't wait for some enjoyment, do you do car shows too turnover?

Hi fella I'm new too and the guys here are very welcoming
