How are you doing Gary? Bout time you popped down for some more cossie chat mate!! Hope you are well. Darren

I use draper ones mate, still tight but they do the job ok. Got mine from me local motor factors.

Saw cracking mk1 mex in orange on trailer near innis downs A30 Cornwall Bodmin earlier today. Looked mint, local car anybody????

Think they used to be deflex. Got deflex on my mk3 tina for last 5years and still look perfect

Think they still going on ebay mate.

thanks guys

thanks mate, would that be 1100, 1300?

found some escort head gaskets in attic. cant remember what engine size though. no on them is ah750. any one know what engine??????

alloy rads on the bay. got bigger 1 for my mk3 tina bob cossie £89. works very well, just be carefull, very fragile compared to older rads. dent easy!!!

me got 4 doors and proud!!

no probs mate. if you come accross any mk3 stuff then give us a shout.

when ive finished with it who knows i will get some pics up of some mk3 cortinas ive raced later aswell,just for you. bit grumpy my friend, everybody to their own! no probs with banger boys, you started having a go!!

that mk1 escort look nice round track!!!

[/img] here you go boys. my flying machine!!!

hope your joking

on ebay, £69 brand new. not worth messing with 2nd hand for that! cant remember ebay shop. put search in for cortina rad. change it too angle outlet and use normal hoses. got some somewhere if you stuck.

Can you write down all info for the pats, some of us would really appreciate it no doubt too much to write down really, but basically there are 3 perm lives, ecu, pats led light, auto box. there are 3 ign lives, ecu, pats module, fuel pump. i found it easier to fit battery side fusebox from ultima as this has all the ign lives for the engine working off the fuel pump relay with one connection to battery. then there are several earth connections as the system uses switched earths as well. sounds awkward but all i had was a multi meter and then study wiring. worked for me

will try post few pics at weekend but not too clever with that stuff!!!

i'm in st austell, so not too far away from route 38. might bring her down some time.

hi boys, just to share with ya. just fitted cossie bob and auto box into my mk3 cortina. few people said go boa as its easier but i had bob sitting on drive in a ultima est. pats wiring is biggest ball ache but when you study it, it aint too bad. everything is tight and i will ave to tweek exhaust but she fired up today 1st turn of key!! my trousers were twitching!! looks awesome sitting between the wings

what the old radio 1 dj???????? wondered what he was up to now!

thanks chaps, will be fitting complete engine & auto box. think i can cope with normal wiring problems, its just the pats stuff i gotta get me head round! also, whats the score with cats and sensors?????? do i need to keep them or bin em? no problem to keep em if i ave to. cheers
