  1. Does it have to be an osf? If not I win, but if it does damn 1981.
  2. That sounds doable but only if your near each other would be one hell of a cruise if it was 1st street london 2nd street sussex 3rd street midlands 4th street scotland lol

    messers

    Good luck mate. But if you do find one and need some bits I work in a pug dealership so can look up any bits you need just incase the dealer near you is rubbish.
  4. I had that exact thing when I crashed the mk1 escy I had. Went for it turned round to tell my mate to put his seat belt on instead of lighting a fag, turned back and *!?..?! when did the traffic stop?!?!?!? screach cadence braking screach crunch. Police came asked "what are you going to do with the car?" (front was caved in) got in it started it up drove it home 'ROCK ON THE OLD SKOOL'.
  5. Surely as long as the handbrake has a lock on it it should pass the guy who does our mot's is just having a look in the book..... hang on....... There is no specific listing for this but as long as the handbrake is in good condition, locks and is as efficient as the original handbrake it should be ok. But he suggests just ringing the mot place and asking the guy before you take it down there.
  6. I have had a few panels from them and the quality is great but it does hit you in the pocket. I now use outer auto panels who have good quality panels but are relativly dirt cheap.
  7. But could you get through the mcD's drive thru?
  8. Baseball bat between the tyre and the arch then drive slowly forwards or backwards and presto rolled arches. If you look on frost restoration website they do the correct tools for it. http://www.frost.co.uk/item_Detail.asp? ... &subCatID=
  9. Better than the stuff we get from x factor
  10. As some of you may know I have been rebuilding my capri after some fairly devastating rust was found under the drivers seat.....and the passenger seat.....and the rear seat........and....but thats not important. It has know taken over 2 years and in that time I have had to buy a run around car, I bought a trade in from work, a nice little 205 non turbo diesel and have recently got a mercedes 300 ce to replace it. Ever since the Capri went I have been in a really dodgy mood flying off the handle for no reason and generally acting all womanish. Does anyone else get withdrawl syptoms? and what effects do they have on you?
  11. It's actually a GL320 CDI with seven forward gears first registered 30 December 1899 or at least thats what the dvla system we've got at work says.
  12. What sort of plug goes onto the bulbs? 3pin is H4 twin pin is H7. When I had my mk1 I had the square lights and they had the 3 pin plug.
  13. Stick a bit of silicon round it thats what most modern cars use. Is the release bearing stuck on the shaft spline?
  14. We at work use Bexhill Gearboxes 195, Bexhill Rd, St. Leonards-On-Sea, East Sussex TN38 8BG Tel: 01424 424132 They are pretty good don't know about that gearbox inperticular but they have been around for ages so might help.
  15. Why don't we all chip in a tenner and buy it for the club could be a track or drag club car.
  16. 1. Girl Racer 2. Richard (Girl Racer's fella) 3. mk1ian 4. Sibbo 5.antz 6.shaun1.6ghia 7.Noodles 8.mk1-xflow 9. huxmk1escort 10. NanaWagon 11. Jay............. 12. slimrs I will be there with some friends as it is my bday that week so getting treated to a car show
  17. I agree with the 'WE've got to do something' sentiment shown here however, if were were to get 1000 osf and go to london would we not have to pay the wonderful congestion charge? and at what £8 a time someone will be rubbing their hads together. I thInk it would be a better plan to try and block one of the main routes like the truckers did the other week although cars are easier to move.
  18. I just used the standard belt fitting points seemed to work fine.
  19. Two solutions come to mind 1, Stop, apply foot brake and 45 degree burnout untill you are straight with them. 2, Accelerate hitting them so fast that you clear them all. Hope this helps
  20. My sister owns a pub in south wales (llandovery) and some mates and I are thinking of having a sort of mini 'gumball' type of thing up there over a week or so but I have no idea what there is to do up the that would interest the car person. Does anyone who lives there have any suggestions of things to do/see or even a time of year to go?
  21. I wouldn't mind earning £36k never mind an increase lol (lonely £14k atm) I realise they do some poor hours but come on any increase above inflation should be accepted. Where I work we have only had 2 pay increases in 9 years and they were like 1.5 - 2%
  22. I thank you
  23. It is featured in the green sash on this website if that helps at all. http://images.google.co.uk/imgres?imgur ... n%26sa%3DN
