Pale blue mk2 cortina 2 door with banded rostyles, subtle but cool

Just want to say a massive thanks for the opportunity to show my car off in such a way and having a brilliant weekend, both Simons' and bryn are great blokes, been a pleasure dealing with you all, keep up the great work cant wait to see the feature, all the best, luke

Indeed mate, plenty of us about

Is it a gold mk5? I keep seeing one on way bacj from hemel where I work

Not to bad a show, although our lot made up 90% of the OSF selection lol. our convoy included me in the cortina, Glen in the dark blue estate, pete in the light blue estate, Tim (escort21) in the mk1 estate, Charlie (projectpearl) in the very shiny black fiesta, Mark in the red fiesta, Ross (442) in the oldsmobile, joey in the 57 bel air & a v8 stag.

Looks pukka mate

Yup, did this to glens escort estate roof, very pleased with it And yes, its all paint

Cheers guys, Tom, next on the list is to re trim the inside, then paint the engine and bay cos they taken a bit of a beating since all the running problems so want to tidy it all up a bit, made some new 1600e style badges but with a twist will post up in a bit. oh & back on the classic ford stand this year woop

Finished today!!! After a few issues with paint pickling its finished, although may have to redo the drivers door , not bad for a 4 day turnaround i think, very pleased with the roof. Now ford frozen white with black roof & gloss wheels, Note the black door frames, exhausts now exit out rear valance which has been cut, you cant see but the left exhaust comes from the right manifold & vice versa to make the them equal lenghts as the come under the left side of the axle, new bonnet lifted at rear. Cheers to Ross (442) and marie for your help today!

better pic for you

Still looks minty fresh in the flesh Tim, nice one.gt the fooker taxed & come & play

Right, as most of you know some c**t smased the motor up a few weeks ago, managed to get about £500 indamages back from the court so all not lost. Anyway given i would have to paint 70% of the car anyway to blend in panels I may as well do the lot. Again, god job i do it myself eh lol. Here are my efforts from the last 2 days, done all the repair and replaced the passenger front door (cheers sibbo) got rid of the dents elswhere too losing te side stripes and using frozen white rather than diamond too and trying something different with the roof, anyway, rood is now done goin to paint the rest over the weekend. heres the damage now my efforts

tell a lie, here's one you can just about make out the mirror, the good thing is they have loads od asjustment, i'' get a bettr pic up before hthe weekend

not at the moment mate cars in pieces being painted at the mo

I got bike mirrors on my cortina now mate, can see out of them about as much as the bullet ones, fook all

Cheers mate

I'm in need of replacement top mounts on my mk2 cortina as mine are shagged, looking at shiny eccentric style ones but need to know are they the same as mk2 escort ones? I'm running standard cortina legs with coilover conversion, any help please Lukey

Wheeler Dealers Tom??? Really? I watch thet to show me what not to do

Cheers Darren, that was the end of the 3.9 diff lol

Couple of vids, using up a pair of shitty tires i found V6bEINEMNo0 AyfnEuUJZak

As you may know I has my car damaged last week, I need to get the work quoted to give the courts a figure to claim back, however I'm doing the work myself and most body shops cant price up off things like hard to get wiper arms etc. Should i make my own list with prices taken from online store etc, like my new bonnet which i already had to buy to use the car was £170 from smith & deakin, would this be acceptable in court or does it need to be 'official' Cheers

My Effort

Nice Tom! Want!!!

Cheers mate, & thanks for all the support guys, he'll get his come uppance i'm sure.
