Guest MK1gaz Posted May 3, 2007 Report Posted May 3, 2007 How about one of those Saxo type front bumpers full of floppy mesh from b+q moulded onto the front of an anglia !!!!!!!!!
Guest M.Bird DOHC Posted May 3, 2007 Report Posted May 3, 2007 i dont have an issue with large wheels but i think some modern wheels look bad on old cars in general with the exception of ratmans mk1 which is just plain sexy. other than that do what you want I think his got black steels m8!
Gareth Posted May 3, 2007 Report Posted May 3, 2007 I don't care what I don't like it isn't my place to criticise someone elses pride and joy. Nor do I care what anyone else doesn't like about mine. It's your / my car, fit what you / I like and be damned to hell with anyone that wants to rubbish it. I'll tell u what I dont like about your car Vista........ It's not mine I personally hate it when someone has a minter of a motor and it gets trailered evrywhere and never ever driven USE IT THATS WHAT IT WAS MEANT FOR!!!!!!

Guest cortinamad-gonetoo Posted May 3, 2007 Report Posted May 3, 2007 like my wife says i didnt do it for you i did it because i like it
kevmk2 Posted May 3, 2007 Report Posted May 3, 2007 I still say there is nothing wrong with big wheels on escorts
Gareth Posted May 3, 2007 Report Posted May 3, 2007 I still say there is nothing wrong with big wheels on escorts I like that But 20" chromes...
kevmk2 Posted May 3, 2007 Report Posted May 3, 2007 10x16's are the biggest to go i reckon,any bigger and they look silly
Arched Escy Posted May 3, 2007 Report Posted May 3, 2007 Or no grill's on cars Never seen a roadgoing car with no grill.
Gareth Posted May 3, 2007 Report Posted May 3, 2007 Especially on escorts it like a nova on 18's- the wheels are jus too big for the overall size of the car. Damn thing looks like a monster truck
Guest M.Bird DOHC Posted May 3, 2007 Report Posted May 3, 2007 Wheres that pic of JAY's van that ran NO grill for ages and ran 5 degree's cooler! It was on last years calender!
OllieC Posted May 3, 2007 Report Posted May 3, 2007 15s should have been standard fit on mk3 capris, well maybe not 2.0 / 3.0s because they are oldskool but an 80s car like 2.8 needs 15s perosnally I really dont like period stuff on capris like louvres and bodykits (not xpack they are awesome) But its just to my taste, hell some people like BMW's but thats their business
Arched Escy Posted May 3, 2007 Report Posted May 3, 2007 Wheres that pic of JAY's van that ran NO grill for ages and ran 5 degree's cooler! It was on last years calender! I do agree about it looking shit,its just I didnt think it would be safe!
Guest M.Bird DOHC Posted May 3, 2007 Report Posted May 3, 2007 i fort it looked hard! Of course its safe!
Arched Escy Posted May 3, 2007 Report Posted May 3, 2007 i fort it looked hard! Of course its safe! It probably is,but would probably get a lot of bugs in your engine bay,not sure if it would make the headlamps shaky though.

Guest MK1gaz Posted May 3, 2007 Report Posted May 3, 2007 So imagine this as an oldskool ford project car then Mk2 escort , black windows , 17 inch chrome spinners , pearlesent pink + white special effect paintwork , neons , furry dash and granada ghia seats , 2 pop up sunroofs facing each over so that they hinge in the middle like gull wings , Lambo style doors that hinge upwards , lexus back lights , touring car areo package of by-plane rear wing and mesh front bumper gratted onto the bottom of an RS2000 nose cone , roof chop , fast + the furious stick on graphics , smoke machine in the boot , playstation rising out from the dash top , chrome zetec with pancake air filter and nikki carb conversion ........ that's a proper oldskool show stopper and probably exists in France but with a diesil !!!!!!!!!
Guest MK1gaz Posted May 3, 2007 Report Posted May 3, 2007 TIME FOR A PHOTOSHOP! That will be ace , who can do one then ?
Cookie Posted May 3, 2007 Report Posted May 3, 2007 Mk1gaz you love a good topical debate don't you A personal thing for me on an osf is huge exhaust tips, like the 2 1/2 ft things you find on a jap motor, just don't think it looks right, but obviousley thats just my opinion
Mr Sam Posted May 3, 2007 Report Posted May 3, 2007 sticking mk2 rear lights on a mk1 fiesta same with swapping the boots.......... im not too keen on bigger or modern wheels on OSF's but look at ratmans cortina thats the nuts
