I came to be on here via another forum - Turbosport -

[Stu_B]

I can't even remember

 

I think it was my mate RichieRich talking about a bunch of nutters he'd seen in CF who'd started a website. I think it was a yellow mk1 running 10x13's that caught our attention...

[Vista]

I've clicked other as truthfully, I don't remember.................though I do remember that this was the first forum I joined and that when I first signed up I had no idea what a forum was, how to post links, photos or even messages

[ratman]

Joined in the early days found it through TS

[4parajon]

I wandered over to one of the stands a few years ago at the pod (think it was the Retro Show) and got talking to Malcolm, he was the first OSFer I met

[deltamal]

Met a couple of the OSF guys at the 2004 Classic ford show, the club I was with disbanded (Cortina mk3 owners club) a few months after, so logged on to OSF! good move!

JP told me about OSF

[bigglesmk2]

I saw a mk2 escort on ebay and asked a question about it and the guy sent me his number,we had a chat and he mentioned getting setup on here so i did

 

It was Cossie350anglia before he became Mick the cabbie

[marky4]

was told about it by a computer repair man when looking to buy my escort

mexy ( guy that bought posse`s mexico) told me about it so took a look and joined up 6 months later contributed and been here ever since find it very addictive at times

[BIGKEV]

I find Old skool fords to be rusty

[baz105e]

my brother (burns) introduced me a couple of years ago, god knows how he found the site

[5hane]

Its hard not to know about OSF to be honest

[Ste-V]

I can't remember saw a windscreen sticker I think

[jimbo]

I'd bought a MkI fezzer as a run around for a while and signed up to fiestaclubgb.co.uk for spares and advice.

 

Then having got my mitts back on a MK II Escort, I was thinking that in this day and age, there should be something similar out there not just for fiestas, but for all the old classic ol' fords out there.

 

I started researching message board technologies and planning out a website. Then when I was googling to see what domain names were available, I found OSF in the results.

 

Saved me no-end of bother......

[Mrs O/H/C]

Got chatting to a couple of guys by the name of Adam and Darren (posse)up at Ace Cafe one night..the rest is history even though didnt join the forum until i moved to Cornwall 3 years ago from Sarrff London !!

[BIG G]

Whilst thumbing through a adult publication i spotted an advert and joined it was even clickier back then..... if thats possible

[sampedlar06]

found it through TS tried to join up...i couldnt (probally me just being stupid!) forgot about it then found it again through google.

[GJUK]

I was one of the founding members, in fact. I'm still waiting to be appointed as an admin (something tells me I may be waiting a while also).

 

[Retromotorsport]

Jono.. thats me an you from 2004,

and again, it was through 'over the road ' , that and Posse getting down on his knees and asking teeth in or out to get me to sign up ...

 

don't deny it Darren, back then your survival was like mosts peoples. But with one added part.

 

normal people ... breathe in ..breathe out

Posse ..... breathe in , drink stella, breathe out

 

Only joking, him and the originals have built up what is the premier 60-80 ford site .. well done and long may it continue to grow

 

 

Just looked and I was number 65 to sign up, jono was 4th
