Wanted - 2 door MK1 Escort Must have a totally solid shell with no rust or bodges (i will find them, so please don't try it on ) and be in a nice colour - spec is a secondary concern, this will be my forever car so im in no rush. I dont mind mechanical work, im just not restoring shells any more! Im a serious buyer with up to 30k to spend on the right car - i'm near Liverpool but don't mind travelling nationally for the right car. At my price range, id be asking for full pictures and a video walkaround before i come and view the car. Please get in touch if you are thinking of selling. revingtosh@gmail.com or whatsapp me on 07342632129 and i'll get back to you asap. Cheers Mike

What sort of Torque and Horsepower would be reliably achievable would you say? I want flames and bangs from a side exit exhaust by the way. Thats mandatory

Hi everyone - before you all pile in - i know what you are gonna say... "Why not just fit a Pinto / Zetec / Whatever..." In the interests of building something different, not to mention cheap - has anyone got any knowledge of Turbo Charging the 1300 xflow? Im thinking that id like to give it a go as an interesting engineering exercise - plus my 1300 motor has only got about 70000 miles on it, so its a nice starting point. I dont want to throw money at the problem - id like to get as many second hand parts from scrapyards / ebay as possible - just to build something different. Any constructive thoughts & opinions would be greatly appreciated. As would any suggestions on Turbo / Carb/ Management etc. Cheers Mike

Hi, Im not sure on your budget / desired requirements - but i got offered a MK3 Capri last week - the lad has still got it too. MK3 Capri 2 Litre S (i think!) Black Solid car so im told. Bad points Some clown has handpainted it matt black It needs a clutch. I can get the lads number if you need it. He was after a grand for it.

Hi everyone! After a 20 yr lay off, and getting side tracked with career, mortgages, and kid - ive decided to reward myself with this nice MK2 on my 40th birthday recently. Glad to be back on board Lots of mods planned - the car is solid, it just needs a little TLC mechanically which im doing over the winter.
