  1. All done mate thanks. Got a Mk1 escort, doing a full resto. Now I can put it on rollover jig
  2. Props off and very limited on space. So basically leave leaf springs until last. Doing full restoration by the way so everything is coming off
  3. This may sound silly but what is the procedure of removing axle. Wheels are off lol. Do I remove leaf springs or are they under tension with the axle weight. Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
  4. Spot on. Thanks for that
  5. What's the best primer to use straight onto bare metal. Acid etch or Weld thru Zinc. Also is it ok to seam seal joins etc after first coat of primer or before. Thanks
  6. I've given 3 thick coatings to inner boot floor and its just dried out. Even tried Dot 4 lol
  7. What's the best paint stripper for panels. I know acid dipping is best process but funds are limited. Used Nitromors and its pathetic. Apparently it's not as it used to be due to EU ruling
  8. Need urgently a pair of mk1 escort inner wings 110mm hole. Project on hold til I get a pair. Thanks
  9. Was he ok. Must admit the safety team were quick to react.
  10. Any of you guys know what happened to the drag car on the saturday, the one where the bonnet blew off, literally. The bang was huge. Think it was a pontiac firebird. The poor guy was out cold for a bit i think. Obviously wondering if the chap was ok. Someone said there was a build up of nos but not sure.
  11. Oh right, was this the wenny that used to have an escort with royal mail livery on it. The name rings a bell.
  12. Dont know who it was but the escort mk3 was fookin rapid, a proper street sleeper. Think it was running a cossie lump. Well done whoever he is
  13. Oh right, cool. Thought it was a certain part if u know what i mean. Thanks.
  14. Does anyone know who supplies the elastic straps on the base seat for RS rolltops please, i need 2. Thanks.
  15. Thats the one. I would be very shaky in my pants to get that posted out....
  16. About £250 tops i think. How far is this going with parts.
  17. Did anyone see the mk1 grill that went for sale on e-bay. Tried to post it up but without success £895. .
  18. Does anyone know of any decent companies who supply body panels for a mk1 and mk2 escort. If so do they fit ok. Thanks
