  1. Took the car out for a spin on the last day of Dec. Good craic. It's amazingly easy to get out of junctions cos there is always someone who let's you out to get a better look. Roll on the shows & runs
  2. Can you imagine most people's thoughts on seeing that. Questions on your sanity might be asked lol Nice save that.
  3. I have one. Blue vinyl in well worn condition. Frame is good tho. Would be expensive to get to England though. I will get a quote if you wish?
  4. Some nice t-shirts with escorts on em and a new tenant socket set. Happy days.
  5. Yes catches on everything. Clamp was rotated since. I had to move the manifold down pipe first tho as it has no clearance. I also put a skid on the silencer as it kept knocking it's self loose. Am also currently shortening a set of struts and fitting shortened inserts with better bumpstops, as the last 2 inches of drop took the ride quality away.
  6. Wee teng socket set, a drill and three tee shirts with Mk1 Escort on. Happy days.
  7. Yep. Never ending exhaust woes here as well DSCI0144 by quickrack, on Flickr DSCI0141 by quickrack, on Flickr
  8. I do like superchargers. Keep us updated please
  9. I am 5" lower all round. It's very harsh so I am going to fit shorter inserts and I need a more progressive bumpstop in the rear Looks awesome tho
  10. I am determined to finish a run without problems. So a series of improvements is my plan.
  11. Too much info
  12. My daughter gave me a pen sized, telescopic back sratcher Works too.
  13. The 5 speed is easy. You need a clutch disc the same size as the crossflow one( 195mm I think) but with the splines to fit on the gearbox. 23 Spline ?? Usually classed as early 4 speed sierra pinto on parts databases. Otherwise it bolts straight on to the engine. Good luck!
  14. If its the standard one for the 1100 single choke downdraught I think I have one you can have for postage cost. I'll never use it.
  15. Surely there is bits and pieces there, good to restorers etc at least. Better than just rotting all the way away.
  16. DSCI2155 by quickrack, on Flickr Really like the way the light hit it here
  17. Thanks. And many happy returns!
  18. Seeing as it is as low a a low thing, the leading edge of the silencer catches stuff. This I have decided is why the damn thing keeps cracking, leaking and trying to fall off. So I welded a wee skid on. Nothing sexy but it should help.

  19. It my phone that the problem. It no bother from a computer at all.
  20. How are you getting on with it
  21. Tell us what recounted you are using now and it will be easier to help
