Ok, so I feel like a kid on Christmas morning!!! Going to pick the motor up this afternoon! Can't fookin wait!

I'm going with a completely renewed interest as I've just got my new one. I shall be there to spend a fook load of money on bits given half a chance

They would look nice, however I think it'd be easier to find some rocking horse shit, or even some bird's teeth.

Yep!! The guy is selling some rods too, so I've offered him £300 for the crank and rods, see if he bites.

Well I've just won a cosworth crank on the 'bay for £151 Halfway there then!

It's ultimately there for sound proofing, and who wants that in a nice growly pinto powered mk2 eh?? Not me sir!!

When you do, get rid of that bulkhead cladding, only adds weight, and holds moisture so makes things susceptible to rot!

That looks really pretty mate! Is it still 1.6? or 2.0?

Brown bread, gotta be.

Luke, you have PM mate

Cheers mate, expect to see a lot more of it too!

That's all I can think of right now, but I'm sure you will all see it soon, hopefully before the RS Owners Club day, are we having a stand etc there?

Oh I can't wait to get her out there on the circuits!! Also to all the OSF meets, waited a long time to get back behind the wheel of an Escort, and I think I've got myself a bit of a stonker!

Useless Apple Pies, and they're supposed to provide a service?!?! New screen looks nice, bet it seems like there's no glass there at the moment? Muchos kudos to Darran and Mark! Well done chaps.

Cossieglen My bro and I might have finished dead last before (due to our superior build you understand) but it was a top blast!

Shame, I just bought a new one today, but it's not going to be ready in time sadly! Oh well, there's always next year
