60pop Posted March 17, 2009 Report Posted March 17, 2009 Hello, This is my 1960 pop, She's got a 1600 xflow, 105e axle, mexico steels on rear and cortina on front. Slightly lowered but not enough! I plan to lower her more, painter her old English white with slight sparkles on the roof (girly i know, going for 60's look) with RS wheels, keep the enigine for the time being then maybe a pinto not sure though. Let us know what you think!
Savvi Posted March 17, 2009 Report Posted March 17, 2009 I'm liking that a lot Paintwork looks good as it is ? Do you have steering box or rack conversion ............... you need to put some more details Welcome to the site by the way
DanV Posted March 17, 2009 Report Posted March 17, 2009 Welcome to OSF Nice 100E mate. I actually like the colour.
60pop Posted March 17, 2009 Author Report Posted March 17, 2009 Thank you, it's still got steering box i think, not sure what suspention she has, still finding everything out.

What car was you in? I try to go to the embankment every month for the meet!
60pop Posted March 18, 2009 Author Report Posted March 18, 2009 I've owned her for about 6/7 months now. All the rubber seals need replacing which i am slowly doing. The interior needs repair, at the moment she has original back seats, the front are a blue/green which don’t fit properly, not sure what from! The door cards have been painted in the same colour as the car however over the years they have cracked! She has 58,000 miles on the clock which would suggest from the MOT's to be legitimate ! Only had the smallest amount of weld. From what I gaver from the MOT’s she was taken off the road in 1995 where she was painted this blue and the 1600GT XFlow was put in.
285Andy Posted March 18, 2009 Report Posted March 18, 2009 cool!! rear end needs dropping a bit as you say but still looks good though
