  6. a rotweiler in the footwell will work well when theres dodgy goins on round here the dog stays in front of the van at night strangley he prefers the dirty work van to the nice kennel an dog run hes got
  7. i hate fireworks they do my head in thats all you hear for the next few months is them banging at all hours luckily since i moved to the middle of nowhere there only faint compared to having them fired past the door in the housing estate no neighbours is bliss
  8. i'll be honest i couldnt care about the case he was going down all along they have to blame someone an he was the easiest to fit up MJ was a great performer never to be replaced but he was a complete nut job an i wouldnt be suprised if he druged himself but he must have got them from the doc so hes only got himself to blame to get himself in that postition

  10. that just taking the pi55 i only paid just under £500 for the pair it does help to shop about i remember my first mk1 escort build i give over the top prices as i didnt know where to look but nearing the end of the build you get to know the good an the bad
  11. for a rocket box (rs 2000 gearbox) an type 9 gearbox the back of the gearstick hole is inline with the front of the seat crossmember box section or looking fromthe underside the gearbox tunnel has a brace there is a oval hole in the brace cut back to the most rear part of the oval (axle side) you wont be far wrong there
  12. yea i see that 140mph dash 5k lol what a joker these sell for about £400 an thats far too much for a set of clocks to be honest i dont think £500 a set of wings is out of this world it wasnt long ago that mex wings were fetching 750 each the tooling an effort to make them must have cost a absolute bomb before even 1 wing was ever pressed as for prices of old skool stuff there are still some sensible prices out there you just need to look high an low i cant knock e bay cos ive sold parts on there for silly money cos some idiots have more money that sence

  19. i was looking into t/b's vs dcoes i looked on a site that rolling roaded a car on 45's then fitted t/b's the results were peak power bhp showed t/b's produced more peak power low to mid the webers produced better figures than the t/b's but t/b's made a smoother power curve than webers for the cost involved of t/b's i kept to webers also if your broke down on the side of the road your got more chance of getting webers to go than t/b's
  20. my current mk1 hasnt a name but my last mk1 was called daisy cos she was yellow an i wanted it white also the reason i found the name was everyone at work used to write daisy on the works van not sure why tho i drove it like i stole it??????
  21. i would have thought a cossie turbo would be alot easier than zetec turbo as its supposed to be turbo anyway been about for years an all the parts are easy to get an any pitfalls have ben sorted an on the plus side its rwd to start with no rwd convertion parts needed an will bolt up into any pinto hole almost imeditaly but a little fettle here an there its in
