  1. This concerns me. I need all the rubbers for my mk2 escort so was banking on them. I now need to find out a new supplier!!! Any ideas for the whole car???
  2. Thanks!! I have looked and can only find strato silver??? Or is there only one??
  3. I want to paint my car the same silver as the harriers had. I have looked around was there 2 silvers?? Platinum and stratos??? Does anyone please have the paintcodes for these silvers please ???
  4. Just come back from the Kent show. It had a great turnout!!!! I was really pleased that there were a lot of escorts/capris fiestas etc. Hopefully with the success of this years next year will be better again.
  5. I am going tomorrow as I only live 1 mile from it . It would be great for us to have a Kent show.
  6. I know it's only a small event but I will pop along just in case.....,,
  7. Rs 4 spokes all day long. End of!!!!
  8. I thought the same steve. I was thinking 195/45/13 on front on 8" rims but not sure about the 9" rims on the rear. Suggestions anyone ???
  9. I will be there !! Would be great to get some support to get this Kent show up and running!!
  10. I want to run 9" on the rears and 8" on the fronts (13" dia). I want to run the car real low any info on tyre sizes makes etc???? Really appreciate the advice.
  11. Watched your car today on a DVD that your dad gave me. That car is quick!!! I like it a lot. !!!!!!
  12. I was there !!! Great cars. I am busting to get mine done!!!
  13. Probably because the engine your dad is building for me is black and silver. I want everything that colour as it will look nice on a crisp white car. Gonna do all the brake and fuel ends in piano black as well to have continuity throughout the whole build.
  14. My car is going to be white!!! I think I will leave them exposed.
  15. My first car was a mk2 escort van and I loved it !!! Nice work vista.
  16. Really like that Matt. Nice work.
  17. I have looked into this. The prepfab Stobart liveried escort has them smoothed over as well as a few other well prepped cars. Then I have also seen quite a few that leave them exposed. Just don't want to get it wrong!!!
  18. My car has just had its Tarmac arches and gp4 spoiler fitted. Do I try and hide the rivets or fill them over for a smooth look ?? I have seen some cars that leave the rivets exposed and some that lose them. My only worry is that if I try and lose them the small bit of filler may shake out over time. Your expertise and thoughts always appreciated .......
  19. Your car james is nice. The mechanicals on it are lovely(I am a nuts and bolts man!!)I am going to the classic ford show and am looking forward to it. My car won't be ready until late summer however I will be attending get togethers and shows. Get your escort going I would like to see it out on the road!!
  20. I will defo be there!! It's literally a mile from me!! I hope it gets a good turn out as it would be nice to get a good local show going.
  21. 7th of April is Easter saturday so a lot of people may be away.
  22. When you have gone this far with a project you just don't want to get it wrong!! I had my heart set on the stripes being painted on however this now might change. I suppose at least if they are on and unlacquered I can peel them off if I don't like them. I just thought that being stuck on the outside unlacquered you can feel them as they stick out slightly.
  23. I thought if they were not lacquered over they would lift or be a pain when polishing?? Were they lacquered over when they left the factory??
