Im looking into this at the moment aswell so any help any one can give would be great.

If you was to run 7x13's on a mk1 with 175 tyre's what would be the ideal offset? May get some on the van.

Can you fit saloon wing's to a van/estate then? as i've seen mexico wing's on estate's before?

This could be my first skool meet i get to shame the van is far from completion so i will have to come in my fiesta (will park round coner lol) Have you the where about's of boxhill? as i'll be comeing from essex way? Cheer's

Agreed i was there in 2006 (Altho with the fiesta club GB!) but it was a great show and some great OSF's there.

Me neither

I've been offered a capri 2.0 sport atlas axle which i've been told has a lsd as stardard? Is this right and if i look at the axle how would i tell? Thank's for any advice.

I see a girl from ingatestone and quite offten in one of the pub's down that way will keep a look out.

Hi i'm near chelmsford, any other's round this way?

Hi i thought it time to introduce myself, i joined up 5-6 weeks ago as i was looking at getting back into an old ford, my first car was a 1.1 4 door mk1 which i loved and i've always wanted another mk1 escort. I put a post up 2 weeks ago as i was offered a mk2 2door auto i went to view the car and was so near buying it when i found a mk1 escort van which upon looking at the desision was made and it is going to be sat in my workshop nexted week. It's going to need a bit of work so no dought i'l be asking a number of question's for you guy/gals to answer but look forward to getting out and about again soon. Graham

Hi i'm new to the site and looking at getting back into the world of old ford's I had a mk1 escort as my first cat some 12 year's ago and even now i'm driveing a nice 3 year old fiesta i carn't stop thinking about owning a mk1/2 escort again. I've been looking around at some but am waiting for the right one to come along when a guy at work said his brother had one in a garage It turn's out his father brought it new in 1977 (year i was born) and 8 year's ago gave it to his oldest son who drove it for 4 year's since then it's been stood up, the car is a white mk2 2door auto 1.3 with 70,000 miles on the clock, i've been informed it is in resonable condition but does require some body work of which i'm not sure as i've yet to view the car The guy who own's it is now in his 60's and has told me to go have a look and make an offer.......but i'm unsure of what to offer as i've seen mk2's go for anything from £200-£12000 If any one has got any idea what i should do it would be great to hear from you and also what is the part's situation on old mk2's these day's as if it need's pannels would i be able to get hold of them? Thank's for any help Graham
