I've always got into rushmoor. The queues were ridiculous tho! There attitude towards us tho was not on. Don't bring the car to be dumped in the punters car park. Especially when your in a airfield!!

I was in the queue at 9.30. Didn't get in until 11. Me in my freshly painted mk1 and my dad in his green 31 model a both in the car park with other irate people! I was not impressed by the marshals just telling me to get up earlier! It's very poor access too. Just seemed like they announced how big the site was and didn't expect to fill it up!

Went to wheels day, sat in traffic for over a hr, then told to park in the punter car park! As the show field was full. Thought it was a bigger site?! Marshals didn't give a toss. Not impressed.

Any one going to wheels day at dunsfold aerodrome tomorrow?

What's the name of that company, RACE, so I can order one. Sounds the way to go.

Any one have any problems with there clutch cable getting hot and sticking when running a pinto with a servo in a mk1 escort?

Another great display on our stand today. Been on the stand for a couple of years. Nice to meet some of you. Looking forward to next year, when my mk1 is not 50shades of yellow!

I've just brought a set from a mk3 capri belts to fit in my Mk1 Escort, gonna need to get another couple of captive nuts welded to the inner sill to fit the bar for the fronts. But not looking too easy to mount the rear's. May have to rethink.

Hi, has any one ever used the retro ford tool to replace pinto valve stem oil seals with the head on? I'm trying to replace mine and I'm struggling! Really don't want to take the head off. <br />Any advice would be good.

Tel1972 one stand pass and two tickets brought and paid for, best get cracking to get the mk1 on the road !!

Hi, very silly question, where is the engine stamped on a 2.0 pinto engine from a sierra? The one by the distributor? Need it for my logbook. Cheers in advance.

Hi, just opened box and it just says fast road, BP270, part number XFBP270, and the vernier box part number is PULSXF, hope this helps.

I shall open the box to check and I'll post it on here ASAP.

Forgot to say that the cam kit is for a 1600 xflow

Hi, I'm located in Newbury, Berkshire, I'm looking for £50 for the manifold and crossover. The can kit complete, £75 Cheers

I have a brand new in the box Piper fast road cam kit, incl vernier pulley and duplex timing chain for sale. Also I have what I believe is a Ashley pinto exhaust manifold and crossover pipe. Make me sensible offers for each.

No, would like to find out tho!

As far as I know it's been laid up for years in the garage, as it belonged to her recently passed away husband. She asked a local garage about what to do with the car, then it was stolen.

Hi, just heard of a orange Mk1 escort Mexico registration RMO 285M, a non runner stolen last night 29/04/2013 from a locked old lady's garage in Aldworth, Reading. Any news please report to me or Thames Valley Police.

Thanx for everyone for your help, I shall give Savvi a bell.

Hi, can any one recommend anyone in the Berkshire area that could assist me in relocating my engine bay electrics with new fuse and relay boxes? Need to get it done before the car goes for paint. Cheers Terry

Hi, just wondering if anyone knows of a decent metal polisher in the Newbury Berkshire area? I need my front and rear bumpers and wheels polishing. Any advice would be good. Tel
