escort new boy Posted May 4, 2007 Report Posted May 4, 2007 looks the dogs the brakes look huge on the back
BigDave Posted May 5, 2007 Author Report Posted May 5, 2007 Brakes are same at both ends actually, I think its just the angle of the shot? I will dig some more snaps out later. I will be going to plenty of shows this year yes. I did a few last year and have made one or teo apperances over the past few years actually. First run out is going to be the lakes tour next weekend. See you all there for some thrashing fun.... CheeRS
BigDave Posted May 5, 2007 Author Report Posted May 5, 2007 Work in progress... Was an original factory black RS1600 from day one but had been restored in the past prior to me owning, but they painted it white?
BigDave Posted May 5, 2007 Author Report Posted May 5, 2007 Looks much better in Black and is very, very rare. Try find another one...?? All ready for a wash on Friday, then Lakes tour here we come.... CheeRS Dave...
BigDave Posted May 5, 2007 Author Report Posted May 5, 2007 By the way, these pics above were before the bigger back brakes were added. It was years ago and I was waiting for HiSpec to get their calipers approved. Gave up in the end and just settled for Cosworth rear calipers. Will probably change them one day?
BigDave Posted May 7, 2007 Author Report Posted May 7, 2007 Will be doing the Lakes Tour and Cumbria show this coming weekend if anyone is along for the ride??
Trevmk3 Posted May 7, 2007 Report Posted May 7, 2007 saw it at the RS show at donnington last year, looked real nice though i did notice a tiny dint on the nearside front arch
BigDave Posted May 8, 2007 Author Report Posted May 8, 2007 Belive it or not mate, I am far from happy with the cars finish. Going to have a good old drive about this year and look at repainting the whle car from scratch again. There is also rust in the inner corner of the drivers door, so this is getting chopped right out rathe rthan tyring to dig it and fill it. So lots of fun in the sun for me this season!
