[Liam.]

few more i founf on the net, i only race 1 cortina a year... at this meeting, anf i got moaned at last year on BSC for posting the pics on there of the mk3 i wrecked

 

[caprinerd]

nice wish i could have made it. were there many there

[bortaf]

Cool pics

Hmm yes some web sites have a few 2 faced members who'll happily buy cheap parts from a racer (or as in some cases free parts in a clear out ) then moan when the same racer actually races HIS OWN car

I keep pointing out that this 2 faced approach only ailienates potential supplys of parts but some just don't get it

Some of em have even scrapped perfecly good and rare cars cos of a snapped bolt but thats ok for them to do it.

 

SOME of us appreciate both the parts and the racing

what happened to the tina? do you still have it? I reckon it could be straightened out: new wings & a bit of filla

[Liam.]

[walsh253]

i cant stand you banger drivers wrecking cars like this

went to smallfield that day instead

[caprinerd]

race there as well now they have some rare tin, 2 mk1 capris loads of escorts singer gazzel hilman hunter

[mk3tina]

if theyre rotten just race them if theres no point in a restoration. if theyre saveable then pass them on, thats my opinion on it. looks like a hell of a fun thing to do, and i may well do it someday when cash allows

[dogdish]

Agreed! If they are that far gone just give them a send off.HOWEVER, i know of some american cars that are first class that were stolen and raced at Buxton about 4 years ago.One was a prestine 74 Plymouth Satellite estate.

[Liam.]

that tina only wanted a plate in the floorwell for mot, was a beauty. rusty ones are a waste of a day they just fall apart. i only race 1 a year so i like to get a goodun

[Liam.]

4 meetings on... and shes dead. brilliant car, had a right laugh in it

 

[bortaf]

4 meetings fook me she done you proud

don't fancy a Mk4 shell do ya? i'll take that one in PX (if it aint already gone) (i need the uprights)

V good shell but needs a diff (rolling on a knackerd axle), no engine/box, int or glass either so you'll need to keep that lot

Oh and it has Mk5 wings, well actually it has no wings but i can find some Mk5 ones to go on it

Looking for £150 outright £100 if i get your old shell

was gonna cut it up for pannels but running out of time and space and money and time and money and space
