Cash is king, Thats all I have to say, I hate banks with a vengence and will only put money in just to cover debits that there is no possible other way of paying....... They got you bang over a barrell and they know it...

Cracking bit of history there

That pics cool as penguins piss, gonna get that saved. lol

Got a big thing for Charlotte Church myself..

Got to say thats the best idea, My blood boils just thinking of the silly cow having a pop, I would of had to do as above as if i got into an argument with her it would of got messy Also think along the same lines, the whole pollution thing is bollox, and even if it was'nt, the minute amount of pollution we put out compares to countries such as china and America, if we stopped everything dead and had zero emmisions, if the other countries carried on it would be like a drip in the ocean. It's all about the so called 'green tax', yea, more fookin money from our pockets for nothing, yet again...

Top job cheers m8, just got a quote of them just under £40 insured agains fire, theft an accidental damage, can't argue with that, job done

With all the thefts over the last year I have come to the conclusion that it's best to insure my new purchase from day !, I would never normally bother insuring a project, BUT never before has a shell of an old ford been so stealable I would be up shit creak without a paddle if something happened and I still had to pay for the bloody thing... So that said, i want to insure the car while it's being built, now I remember before reading about an insurance you can get on a car thats 'laid up' ie not including road risks, I do have motor trade insurance that I can put the car on, but don't ever want to be in the position of having to try and convince them that a 35 year old escort project was worth £x thousands of pounds, know what I mean, would rather pay out a few extra quid and get it with someone who knows what it is and value. So, on that note, any one have any info or could point me in right direction? cheers

WILL be back, deal done, collectiing Monday, look like what it is, an old neglected escort, BUT is one of the most solid escorts I'v ever seen, original sills, original wheel wells, original strut tops, car has never been welded apart from 2 mot patches to hold bottom of wings onto floor where the wing tabs rotted. it comes with an excellent pair of used mex wings, new rally style front panel with slam panel. Can't wait to get back into an old escort, this is gonna be a long but 'proper job' car.....possibly cossie i'll sort a project thread out when I get some pics next week

Going to look at a mk1 2dr escy later, supposedly had hardly any welding, had rotten wings but comes with a pair of mex wings with new front panel etc, not cheap,, but if it's a good solid one worth every penny. Been out of the old fords for last few years with setting up a new business doing 75+ hours a week, so am hoping it's a good one and a deal is done, I play with scrap cars all day, but been itching to get back into playing with another old escort... watch this space

Not for a long time, I been told by folk in the know that alloy, copper, bras etc will stay about what it is now for a good few years, Last year when prices went sky high on everything was same as banks problems, all artificially pushed up beyond it's true worth, so now we are back floating about at normal prices. The processor I sell my cats to reckons cats won't go back up to anywhere near what they were scrapping at, and will take 2/3 years to go up to a decent figure, I was getting £72 for a full original cat, for a big un up to £120 now on £22 for a full original, so you can see the drop on that. Scrap has'nt got the money in it it had last year, but on the other hand there's not every man and their dog weighing in now, can go into yard straight onto bridge and out, last summer it was takig 30-40 mins queing to get on and off bridge.

Have posted on the other thread, but will say here aswell, recived today, top job done on it, big thanks to all involved

Found it-- http://wikileaks.org.uk/leak/bnp-membership-list.txt Seems to me that it's a free country where you can have free beliefs as long as they are the politically correct ones and that you tow the line!!!!! For any personal information like this to get out is an utter disgrace, and it's only gonna get worse, you wait , one day there will be enough information on the web on all of us for someone to shut the country down and fook us right over.
