antz Posted March 7, 2008 Report Posted March 7, 2008 whats does everyone think will be the next big thing in the OSF world? Bigger wheels, more variety of engines,...who knows!!!??? what do you all think? i reckon jap engines are gonna be the next big thing
Cookie Posted March 7, 2008 Report Posted March 7, 2008 I reckon more obscure OSF's will emerge from the woodwork, aswell as 'newer' old fords get drafted in as OSF's, as prices for popular escorts, cortinas etc carry on up into madness.
escort21 Posted March 7, 2008 Report Posted March 7, 2008 Poverty models and 4 doors being modified due to the 2 doors being out of peoples price range
antz Posted March 7, 2008 Author Report Posted March 7, 2008 i agree with teh 4 door comment...theres a lot more being modded now and not just broken up for bits. estates and vans
Gonzo Posted March 7, 2008 Report Posted March 7, 2008 I'm with antz. jap motors will be the next thing that's getting done.
Admin Mk2Jo Posted March 7, 2008 Admin Report Posted March 7, 2008 A few people are already doing the Jap conversions. I think that will deffo increase in popularity because the donor vehicles are getting cheaper I also think that the MK.3. Escorts will continue to dramatically increase their popularity/value - especially the early RS's the S1's. Also the 3 door cossies. Although I think they are already classed as Old Skool Classics outside of OSF
Twinkle Posted March 7, 2008 Report Posted March 7, 2008 i think there will be a lot more fwd conversions to rwd am thinking about it myself
morcheen Posted March 7, 2008 Report Posted March 7, 2008 Poverty models and 4 doors being modified due to the 2 doors being out of peoples price range aint 4 doors supposed to be the poverty models ? 4 doors are going up in price fast,as 2 doors get out of control .
DAZZA Posted March 7, 2008 Report Posted March 7, 2008 I reckon its gonne be pro-touring. Modern colours, spilt rims etc. The Aussies and yanks are already there. The younger generation are looking to our cars but arent really diggin the style. I listen to my 16 year old son, he knows the scene and our look, but always talks of a moonstone blue Mk1 on black split-rims and Focus RS lumps spun round. Im a die-hard south Londoner so will always go with crossflow/pinto motivation, small wheels and dont like anything outside of that box (how narrow minded), although appreciate the craftmanship in other styles. ..... always difficult to predict style.
ZetecVan 2.0 Posted March 7, 2008 Report Posted March 7, 2008 i think there will be a lot more fwd conversions to rwd am thinking about it myself I'm thinking about converting my van from RWD to FWD because I don't like it when the back end slides on wet corners Jap engines... Yes..I'll agree with that.
MightySprocket Posted March 7, 2008 Report Posted March 7, 2008 mk3 base model escorts sarf london style
Copey Posted March 7, 2008 Report Posted March 7, 2008 jap engine conversions, cheap power and reliable
Rick Posted March 7, 2008 Report Posted March 7, 2008 fiesta and sierras will skyrocket in value and i reckon highly tuned small engines/bike engines as the way fuel prices taxation is going no1 will be able to afford 2 litre+ cars
ASBO CAPRI Posted March 7, 2008 Report Posted March 7, 2008 i reckon jap engines are gonna be the next big thing Hope not rice burners just ain't my cuppa tea. Like that film tokyo drift where they put a jap motor in a GT mustang wrong wrong wrong automotive sin. I say more yank motors in osf's thats allowed.
Kieran Posted March 7, 2008 Report Posted March 7, 2008 RWD Mk1 Fiestas Jap Engines 4 Doors Estates/Vans

over_head_cam Posted March 7, 2008 Report Posted March 7, 2008 Commercials Imagine a mk1 tranny on the floor on superlights
tim Posted March 7, 2008 Report Posted March 7, 2008 jap engined escort isnt new tho,they been doin that in OZ for years and in rallyin 4age engines were in use before the XE came to light. 4 doors and more standard looking cars,i think the rally rep look might of had its day with so many of them being about the last few years
razersedge Posted March 7, 2008 Report Posted March 7, 2008 furry seat covers and draylon?...................... hmmmm i'm liking that think i might start the trend now and get some tiger strips or zebra print ones all these choices but which ones should i get
