I think i'll buy fibreglass ones for mine then !!!!!!!!
ZetecVan 2.0 Posted January 8, 2008 Report Posted January 8, 2008 I bought all steel panels for project rotbox from him a few years ago. He's reasonably local to me. He quoted 3 months as they're made to order but I think it was about 4 weeks before they arrived so I was pleased. Have a look at project rotbox for the quality of panels. They all fitted perfectly. I've never seen one of his front wings so can't comment on them, but to be honest, who else is making them? No one. They're hand made, so they will not be the same as the genuine Ford panels.
mk14dr Posted January 8, 2008 Report Posted January 8, 2008 Ive had 3 mk1 escort wings off him, all pretty good quality nice blokes too He runs two companies, Classic component deals in NOS, discontinued and pattern panels and Express hand make stuff. The place itself is pretty cool, full shells in the rafters and racks and racks of rear 3/4's.
