  3. Hello & welcome to this great site ! Love the car !!!
  4. When my Dad told me about this Monday morning I felt physically sick & what Andy had done at the scene of the accident holding Darrens hand & talking to him & trying to reassure him about getting treated once the ambulance got there but unfortunately his injuries took his life, so sad ! My thoughts are with his family & friends.. RIP DARREN Jeff Harris..
  5. Hello & welcome to OSF Jeff Harris..
  6. I agree With Wayne, "OLD SKOOL FORD" !!! does that mean that in 5 years my X reg Mondeo will qualify for it to be considered as an OSF ! & then be allowed to be included on this site This forum & site is very good already & it will spoil it if we allow all those cars that in my view put Ford on a downward spiral ! From an early age I was brought up with OSF & loved them & wouldn`t have anything else,since the plastic era I look for better cars & sadly its not often I have chosen a Ford I rest my case !!! Jeff Harris..

  13. A big well done to John & Dawn Harold !! Thanks for your patience lol ! I thought last years show was good but this year was even better,so again A BIG well done .. Thanks also to all of you who bought bits & also Mike & Mike, don`t worry boys you will be ripping up the road with your Pinto engines & I promise you will both have over 200 bhp & will be very happy with the power as well as the fit & finish "just like Andy does" A big thanks also to the Baker boys,Frank the fence & Fat boy Charlie ! as said I will give you a few extra stainless bolts !! Jeff Harris..
  14. Thank you Vista,you took the words right out of my mouth !!! Jeff Harris. Seriously poor design thinking by Ford in my opinion! I nearly had the same nightmare scenario with the van at the end of my build. Fortunately it was in a workshop at the time and a powder extinguisher was immediately to hand. A redesign of the fuel plumbing happened smartish after that. Narrow escape eh Lucky To be honest I & others use these fuel banjo`s bought from certain outlets & ebay & looking at them they are toilet !! My James has the right idea & should be a lesson to others,he has fitted all aeroquipe pipe banjo`s etc,it looks fantastic & its a lot more proffesional,not only because of the race quality but the safety knowing that it is less likely to brake !! I know this stuff aint cheap but its a hell of a lot cheaper than what Andy now has to pay because of inferior parts !! A lesson learnt for every one,that when it comes to fuel lines there isn`t to dear !! Jeff Harris..
  15. As you have said,this car has inspired so many people,& a lot who wouldn`t admit it ! Andy has owned this car for 23 years & I would say was the fastest N/A 2.2 Pinto MK1 escort on the Planet !!!with virtually standard suspension & gearbox etc,just Power & pilot !! I was down Andy`s workshop the other day & just after 4 days of grieving,he decided to give the old girl a chance ! As I was there he allready had it rolling,the engine was stripped for a thorough inspection,various parts replacement & put back together,ready for its resorection ! We all agreed that we had to give her another chance & as the surgeons on million dollar man said "we have the technology" Andy is taking the car to a guy who is going to give her a new lease on life & although ordinarily you would pull the plug in agreement,this car has a lot of History & unfinished business,so as Arnie would say "I`ll Be Back" Jeff Harris..
  16. Thank you Vista,you took the words right out of my mouth !!! Jeff Harris.
  17. I spoke to Andy in length yesterday about what had happened & yes he was so upset & gutted,that such a Legend of a car was totally destroyed ! He told me he welled up as he helplessly watched his car in a ball of flames & realised that was the end of a car that Andy had owned for 24 years & had Loved !! Andy burnt his arm & leg before he got out but the only thing hurting was his head !! It was a fractured fuel pipe that had gone spraying fuel everywhere & the inevitable happened !! We almost feel that we have lost part of the family,in a strange sort of way !! Jeff Harris..
  18. Fred they contacted me,I am sure it was for Auto trader magazine & not for Film !! sorry if I`m wrong Jeff Harris..
  19. Hello to everybody on here. This is a warning to every body on this forum. There is a Ebay seller under the name of ninja96chris who is selling parts on Ebay listing New & also selling parts as described Mint or Perfect, I Foolishly was one of his Victims !!! I enquired through Ebay messages to this seller,to ask about some rear lights that were on Ebay for a MK2 escort,he contacted me the same way & asked for my tel/no as he wasn`t near a computer. The conversation was like this. I will sell these lights to you outside Ebay for £75 + P&P I said can you confirm that these lights are as described "MINT" as some peoples discriptions are different to others,he said mate these lights are like new "Perfect" !! Ok I said,how do you want me to pay for these,he said PayPal is good mate. I thought well there can`t be anything dodgy about this guy as he wants me to pay by PayPal. He said can you Pay as a gift & I foolishly did,oh & he said £15 P+P for next day special delivery, I did get these parts the next day but the amount was £6.75 on the PO stamp. I unwrapped the box & was absolutely discusted & dissapointed with the quality of these lights,absolute Junk !! I naturally e`mailed the guy & got a reply within the hour,I expressed my dissapointment & said I want a refund,he replied,your being too picky,these lights have come off of a 40 year old car,what do you expect,then I remembered he had rung me,so I called him & he was an absolute pratt saying you bought em,you do what you like,i`m not giving you your money back,is that clear enough for you,naturally I wanted to rip his head off but thought na I will get him back the same way as he has conned me !! so I reported him to Ebay,PayPal,I had some good news though,because I only had £27 in my PayPal account,the other £63 was drawn from my bank as a direct Debit,because of that I could draw the money back through my bank from Paypal & they would draw it back from the conning twat,although be it only £63 but I still have the lights & can use the backs at some stage !!! I have put these crap lights back on Ebay not to con anyone myself at a price starting £200 but to warn others not to buy from this Joker ninja96chris !! I have allready had two e`mails from people who have been conned by this Moron. Anyway the Moral of this long story is don`t buy from this "TWAT"
  20. Well done Kev Who needs V8's ? puddy Ps. About the same terminals and et's Jt was doing in the Anglia 15 years ago kev,no gas. You can't beat the sound of a well sorted V8 mate I'm not running gas mate and also only on 20psi boost I couldn`t agree more Kev, Bikes have there own great sound,4 cylinders with carbs or throttle bodies but especially a mental V8 thers not a sound like it, not forgetting the V8s in the F1 cars also champ & Nascar, I`ve never been a lover of the V6 but the Metro 6R4 sounded the nuts !!! Weve both had a taste of the V8s Kev so we should know Jeff Harris ..
  21. We went to the show for the first time with a trade stand,not knowing how good or bad it would be but was amazed how good it was & all the stock we sold, so we will definately be there next year & who knows we might even have a race car there !! LOL Jeff Harris..
