hellblue Posted September 28, 2007 Report Posted September 28, 2007 Dont know about the capri bit m8, but the only Lemon Squash i know of is a mk2 consul the build of which started back in the 70s by Mark Spooner, I got hold of it as a rotten shell in 89 and rebuilt it to as it was in custom car in 97 ..............

JAY PS Posted March 10, 2008 Report Posted March 10, 2008 God knows what that Capri was called ,but i cant work out why only 2 years after that picture was taken it was no more ,apart from an accident or could be in storage somewhere
hellblue Posted March 13, 2008 Report Posted March 13, 2008 Lemon Squash from back in the day: WOW that was back in the day !!! these were taken befor Mark fitted the canted lights & PA Cresta wheel arch's, the lights changed the front end a lot, it was then that the flames were done Do you have any more pics ???? how come you have them ???

Tonys18t Posted March 16, 2008 Report Posted March 16, 2008 nice one mate, i though i was going mad in me old age there for a bit knew i'd seen it, i think the mag it was featured in Custom Car, Rod and Custom or Street Machine etc probably just called the feature Lemon Squash.
Great 68 Posted January 26, 2009 Report Posted January 26, 2009 Lemon Squash was a Consul Orange Squash was an orange chopped 300e van I owned the 300E in the late 90's, would be good to find out its whereabouts. Sorry to bring up an old thread. This was my old 300E van Was this the one you had or was yours the later one with a Rover V8 ?
JAY PS Posted January 26, 2009 Report Posted January 26, 2009 The 300E was for sale on the net last week http://www.pistonheads.com/sales/838896.htm
Great 68 Posted January 26, 2009 Report Posted January 26, 2009 The 300E was for sale on the net last weekhttp://www.pistonheads.com/sales/838896.htm No, thats the other one. Mine was first. One easy to see diference is the back door. My van was originally a Escort estate with a factory horizontal split back door. The original top hinges are there and the top and window is curved. The other van has straight edges and has a side opening door. I posted this awhile ago on Retro Rides and a previous owner of the other van replied.
JAY PS Posted January 27, 2009 Report Posted January 27, 2009 Im sure there is another one that was the name you mention ,now painted with silver and black flashes to the front ,cant find the ad
