Thanks mate! Sure is a shame to part with her... Location is: Tunbridge Wells, Kent.

I.K. Engineering 1386cc Crossflow – Retro Ford engine build – Selling due to unforeseen circumstances - £1,200 ONO! This engine was built by the guru that is Ike from I.K. Engineering – hours or hard work and experience have gone in to this engine, which has never turned a key. Regrettably, I will never get to use it in anger due to unforeseen circumstances have forced the sale of this lairy short-engine. The engine has been sat un-used since it was built (aside from being turned by hand and a fresh set of seals and check-over from Ike) and I would like to see it go to a decent home. In fact, with a steel crank, you'd have yourself a fully steel Crossflow that will rev all day long. Engine: I.K. Engineering 1386cc Crossflow (short-engine), I.K. Engineering race-spec cylinder head (flowed 170bhp), Kent 1FR4 camshaft, I.K. Engineering billet roller-rocker kit, full ARP bolt-kit, I.K. Engineering ported/matched inlet manifold, 105Speed/Piper MASS-style large exhaust manifold, Accralite forged pistons, I.K. Engineering steel rods, baffled Twin-Cam sump, Beztek electronic ignition kit & distributer. The engine owes me a lot of money when you consider the cost of all the parts, let alone the expertise that has been thrown in – the pictures don't do it justice. I will include the Beztek electronic ignition kit & distributer, which are set-up. Twin 40's on a matched inlet are available at extra cost or if the buyer offers the full asking price. Please send me a PM if you're interested. I am not prepared to let it go for silly money, and I welcome any inspection or questions. Ike will also vouch for its integrity.

SOLD SOLD SOLD SOLD SOLD SOLD - PENDING PAYMENT AND COLLECTION. Project Charlton – Ex-Retro Ford project car – 1980 Ford MK2 Escort 1300 Sport – Rolling Shell - £3,250! It is with huge regret I write this advert – it's something I have been putting off for a long time as it marks the end of an era – a huge thanks to everyone involved - for sale due to unforeseen circumstances. Pictures available here on my PhotoBucket account and in a thread on here too - http://s350.photobucket.com/user/Jgambles/library/Project Charlton/For sale 1980 Ford Mk2 Escort 1300 Sport shell for sale (2-door) – As a bit of background I purchased HGU 478V from Marc Stretton when it was originally run in Classic Ford magazine as project car (Grey originally). The car has been treated as my pride and joy and built-up in Retro Ford magazine with no expense spared. It has been signed (on the dashboard) and driven by the legend that is Barry Lee with lots of praise – all documented in Retro Ford. The front-end is in particularly good condition (battery tray professionally removed in 'bay) and the whole car was given a blow-over in Diamond White two and a half years ago. It will come rolling with GAZ Gold 2.5” struts, GAZ eccentric top mounts, Twin-Cam ARB, double-width brackets, flared rear arches, weld-on rear lowering blocks on single leaf rear springs, brackets and mounting points for Milton A-frame kit on English axle (no link bars), front and rear tow eye brackets and weld-in seat mounts (both by Gary at Retro Motorsport), etc. The car has also been professionally under-sealed by a company that prepare army vehicles and off-roaders – superb investment. Full black military-grade Waxoyl, which will see it stands the test of time... Again all documented in Retro Ford. It has sat in a workshop since then and I want to pass it on to someone who can do it justice. Being transparent, there is some rot around one of the rear arches (only discovered when we were flaring it), the doors are showing signs of rot at the bottom (paint peeling around top as we were going to do the black around the windows a la sport), slight pitting in roof (used to have a vinyl roof), some of the filler has sunk around the car, and the front panel is missing some paint where I was planning on fitting a lip spoiler. Oh and the front wing was also damaged slightly when the wheel hit the arch when changing lock-ups. I've been very open, the car isn't mint, but with a bit of work it could look superb. I was building it to compete in... I am looking for £3,250 for the rolling shell (on old RS Four spokes) and I will throw in a freshly painted, matching bonnet and boot (mint) if I get the full asking price – the suspension set-up is worth £600+ alone (rear GAZ shocks are available at extra cost as is Safety Devices roll-cage). No messers please – I won't accept any silly offers - if there's no interest it will be going on eBay and PistonHeads.com. Send me a PM and I will get back to you ASAP - Happy to share my mobile number for those seriously interested. I am based in London, and the car is in Kent - I will therefore be available for viewings 8,9, 15, 16 February (first come, first served) and, potentially, on an evening during the week, if agreed in advance. Further more, everything else from the car will be going up for sale: This includes Hi-Spec M16 (206mm) brake kit, Fibre Glass front and rear bumpers, Fibreglass bonnet and boot, Pro-Alloy fuel cell, Safety Devices 6-point roll-cage, Carbon front and rear door cards, wing mirrors, washer bottle, ARB lip spoiler, 7x13” green wheels, Quiafe straight-cut 'box, MotorDrive seats, Sparco 6-point harnesses (black), dash top, and a full set of rubber seals, glass, laminated front screen, Gartrac BIAS pedal box, the list goes on... I will also be selling the I.K. Engineering 1380 X-Flow. I will follow-up with an advert for all of this later on including prices in the parts section.

Thanks guys! Really appreciate it! A special mention to 'harris-hpe', who tracked down a 1300 block for me. Our old mate, Ben Morley, has come up trumps AGAIN - top bloke! I best source some RS gearbox lowering blocks and we'll have her sat in the 'bay on Sunday morning. This is why I love the old Ford world! Thank you.

Good evening one and all, I'm not entirely sure if I am posting this in the right area, but heyho. Has anyone got a 1100 or 1300 block I can borrow in the South East/Kent area, this weekend? Our short-rod is still with I.K. Engineering and, due to our tight deadline for the build, we need to trial fit the engine and gearbox this weekend. A bare block will suffice I will give anyone who can help us out a shout in the 'Retro Fleet section of Retro Ford magazine. Thanks in advance, James

LGreen - We're going to be organising a drift day in the magazine soon, keep an eye out for it! Get that Ford built…

Up until recently we've had a lot of Escorts shot (hence the delay), however yours will be going into the pages of Retro Ford rather shortly. We apologise for the delay and we'll do our best to get it in as soon as possible. Cheers, James

Thanks for the kind words chaps. Enjoy.
