Holy crap. How much?

Didn't realise they came gold plated

Looking for a good tank for my Mk1 Estate. Pretty sure any Mk1, Mk2 or Mk2 van will fit. So will Mk1 and Mk2 Cortina Estate. Also if poss with a working sender.

Will cover all postage costs to Guildford.

Thanks

As above please if anyone has any or all of these

I have the wiper motor so only need the linkage. I'm guessing Mk2 linkage is the same. Happy to be corrected if not.

The plastic ignition shroud, both parts. Colour unimportant

Steering column outer tube

The plastic centre switch panel. Colour unimportant

Many thanks

Yep. Plus a few other bits.

Yep. On it way to my workshop for some modifications.

As heading.

WOSP high torque 9 tooth 2 bolt starter. Has just been fully refurbished by WOSP on 19 September with a new clutch.

£120 plus postage (will only be sent insured and signed for) or collect Guildford

About 5 years ago I posted a want ad here for a 1600 XF for my Mk1 and got really lucky. Can't remember who I bought it off but it was a lovely 1700 build with a nice cam etc and worked head.

Anyway, another project, another request.

So thought I would try again. Is anyone about to, or has already, swapped out a good 1600 /1700 for a Pinto or Zetec conversion and got one up for grabs. 1600/1700 I'm not too fussy as long as it's good............or......

A 1600 that is complete that maybe needs or would benefit from a rebuild? Not too worried about ancillaries as long as it's a full engine.

Worth the ask.

Cheers

Superb car. Restored 2005 and still presents well today. Underside is spotless. You could almost eat your dinner off it (if u eat upside down that is) Painted not undersealed. Lovely 2.0 Pinto mated to a 5 speed for more comfortable motorway use. Interior and engine bay are also in superb condition. Alloys in excellent condition with good tread on the tyres. MOT to May 2016. This will qualify for free road tax front next year which is also nice. Viewing recommended. Location Guildford

I am looking for an escort van. mk's 1,2, 3 or 4. No diesels. Or a nice Mk1 Escort estate.

Car is in Guildford.

Thanks.

Bastards. Will keep look out as only in Guildford.

That reminds me, must get a tracker fitted.

Sunday night bump. Open to offers. Got too many cars here.

Springs and U bolts etc in good condition. £80 collected. Guildford

For sale is my chassis tilter.

I purchased this new from CJ Autos to carry our significant repairs to my car.

Major repairs now completed, I have no real use for it at the moment.

It is the CT05 model which is the heavy duty version and boy is it heavy. I reckon you could easily lift more than a VW Camper on this but CJ rate it at about 2500kg. Do not confuse this with some of the cheap tat available. This is very well made.

I also bought 2 standard beams and fabricated brackets to fit a Mk1 Escort. But it wouldn't take much to modify them again for other cars. Or if you prefer, CJ's do dedicated beams for various cars. They also sell castors for it but I didn't bother as my workshop wasn't big enough to warrant moving it around.

This tilter is in perfect condition. They cost over £1200 new excluding the beams. If you have an up-coming project, this is for you. It has been an absolute godsend. You can rotate the car through a full 360 degress.

The pictures are of it with my car but aren't great. There are more details here http://www.cjautos.eu/NBN_CHASSIS_TILTER_HEAVY_DUTY_p/ct05.htm

Collection only please from Guildford, Surrey. If you want to arrange a courier, that's fine, but you will not get this in a standard car. It's too heavy! Transit van or pickup advised.

Any questions please ask. £800 incl beams to fit direct to an Escort

1976 Ford Cortina Mk3 2000E Auto, 4 Door, Diamond White. MOT July '14, Tax Jan '14.

The engine runs nice and sweet with absolutely no knocks or cam noise. Fully polybushed suspension, new track rod ends and new valve stem oil seals. New cambelt and tensioner, Full service in last 50 miles including oil/filter, auto 'box fluid and a brake fluid change.

It has a period aftermarket tilt glass sunroof that is fully functioning and doesn't, as far as I can determine, leak

A very clean, rust free and ready to use '70's classic. See below, lots of pics.

Structurally it is sound. Chassis is all good, Sills are very good. Floors good, inner wings good etc etc. Has rear inertia belts fitted. CD head unit in glovebox. Original Radio fitted but purely for aesthetics as not currently wired up.

There is a bit of noise from the diff on the overrun and the front seats either need replacing or revamping as the foam is rather flat and the drivers seat base has worn rather thin and has a couple of holes.

I have another complete rear axle (including brake shoes and drums etc) included in the sale, if you want it of course.

I had planned to sort the axle and the seats in time for next years shows, but need to sell to fund the purchase of my daughters first car. Though I could be persuaded to p/x........possibly as after a Mk2 Capri.

A great looking car that turns heads and always receives great comments.

Viewings welcomed and indeed encouraged to fully appreciated what your buying. Don't forget it is approaching 40 years young.

Car is in Guildford, Surrey, about 10 miles South of J10/M25.

I can arrange delivery. I have a contact who runs a car collection/delivery service and will gladly obtain a quote on your behalf or pass on the chaps contact details if you prefer.

 £3950

I'm after seats for a Mk3 2000 Cortina.

If anyone has a set or even just the drivers in good condition, let me know.

In an ideal world they would be in Savannah black cloth but anything considered.

Alternatively, details of a good trimmer that could redo mine.

Cheers

Looking for a good set of cloth seats for a mk3 2000E in black or charcoal with headrests

Cheers

Jay, if I had the cash, I'd be buying it back. Lovely motor. 

As long as you don't mind Mike Brewer ragging your pride and joy round a track somewhere with tyres squeeling. You have been warned.

Having said that if mine was finished, I'd have jumped at the chance being just down the road.

I'll be there in my newly refurb'd 4dr but may not be able to stay the duration so rather than leave a gaping hole in the line up I'll stick it in the cheap seats. Definitely be there though.

It also pays to sieve the blast media if it is going straight back into the hopper otherwise you end up sucking back through all the crap you have just blasted off.

Just started watching the new Marchlands programme and there's a Caribbean blue X reg Cortina estate in it.

Anyones on here ??

Mine's just as silly and excludes all company cars which would add at least another 10 to the list. This is most of them. I can even remember the reg No. of most.

Escort doesn't look like this anymore either. Have started stripping it for resto.

I've a mate who wants a respray on a Scimitar and a 3 series beemer that needs paint on a new wing and bonnet. Also the rear arches need some work.

Any ideas of cost?

Cheers
