looks quality mate . Are they Ford 5 stud fitment? Who did them for you?

Big Pimpin'

Blimey forgot bout V8 fuel demands! mine gets bout 13 to the gallon but thats breathed on obviously - think global warming is my fault! Was a good run on the way back - highlighted my warped disc though, somthing else to get fixed!

Hi Ken Glad its back on mate. Ive been buying up bits over the winter so i'll have to get them on now! Good to hear its end of april - im laid up at the moment and the cars ok, wrong way round! Save me some fuel too if you do the run to Manchester! Dave

I dont get bored - just frustrated that i cant get the money together to finish it as it is in my head, but i supose that is no different to a lot of people! it's running just great but i want an alloy rad with elec. fans, new front legs, all new breaks and finally get round to having my RS 7j's refurbished. But.......even its not quite how i want it, give me a bit of sunshine and a decent stretch of tarmac and im never happier!

ive seen a set of 6jx13 4 spokes made by ATS with a funny offset, apparently they are in the habbit of making copies of wheels from time to time, or so ive been told!

How many Capri's have you had now Ken?

I'd have to go with a mk3 3 litre S - but im biased

Nice one Ken

Sounds ace - very interested. Im going to the states in April for 2 weeks so i'll let you know when you have definate dates!

Sounds like a plan!

Some guy knocked on my door yesterday - he really wanted my Capri! Of course i turned him down, but i did point him in the direction of this website - so if anybody has a 3 litre s for sale let me know as he wouldnt go until i took his number off him incase i changed my mind!

worth a crack. while i was out and about last month i saw a rotten capri 3 litre S on someones drive. There was someone in the garden so i asked - told me to piss off! but dont let that put you off - i reakon he was having a bad day! Dave

Had the same dilema with my Capri mate. In the end it got rebuilt - taken back to bare metal - the lot. But i still have a few orange bits poking through! Could argue it was a bad job but it's just old fords! at least if you do it yourself you know its proper, every chance you could get shafted buying a "mint" shell.

True enough mate. But my seat runner has just busted and im in a bad mood with it!

Stopped counting after £10,000 - made me feel sick

Ive had 2 sets go now mate - right pisses you off eh?! just use the standard black plastic ones now to save the hassel

Detail painting for me i think and gettin together more parts to finish it properly (but its never really finshrd is it?)

Proper RS's are getting a bit expensive so if someone puts in the time to make one from a base model then fair play in my book!

i am proud to say i am contributer now!

Hi Ken trickey one mate. ive got supers on mine at the mo as you know but ive just got hold of some 4 spokes and their going on! so i'll say 4 spokes (were you thinking 7j or 7.5j?) but i dont think you can go far wrong either way! Dave

it's your car mate - doesnt matter what anybody else thinks and you will never please everyone. It should be enough that you are keeping one on the road!

Im goint to have to go with the 3.1 Essex!

That is not on! When you find out who go medievil!

Sorry to hear that mate, when i got mine back from the shop someone opened their door onto it in the work car park and didnt own up! Bunch of %*b heads!
