antz Posted December 29, 2009 Report Posted December 29, 2009 i like a jap car dont linch me for this but personally i dont like the old square ones they all look very similar (imo like a block of cheese!) u cant deny the japs are amazing and know what they are doing with the power but design wasnt exactly there strong point! here are just a few 80's japs that are like cheese: toyota Celica, mr2, nissan pulsar, z31, subaru XT, legacy shall i go on a nice jap classic 240z, classic skyline but hey its urs and u love it so good on ya i bet its fun and puts that same grin on ur face so thats all that matters! nissan pulsar is basically a early 1990's sunny with a gay bodykit and a 2.0 engine.

over_head_cam Posted December 30, 2009 Report Posted December 30, 2009 I like an oldskool ricer, just not keen on the placcy ones I know this has been around for ages but I love it
stevepeanut Posted December 30, 2009 Report Posted December 30, 2009 dont get me wrong ,if you are total old skool ford to the bone thats fine but i do like other cars but o/s/f are my fav,s , but lets keep this site for o/s/f ,s from very madmex !!! why do people keep saying, "this site is for osfs only" yes 99% of the site is but chit chat room is for everything else but osf show us your bike, truck, none osf car, personal problems, job/employment issues, tell us what kind of chocolates you like at christmas, anything you like, if you want osfs only, go to every room but this one!
geoffersmasher Posted December 30, 2009 Author Report Posted December 30, 2009 haha this is chit chat not old skool ford chat so i didnt expect so many people to tell me there opinions of what my car should be not that i asked, i was a very active member on this forum for a while and thought id just update folk on what id been up to thats all, and as for the whole plastic thing, i just dont get it apart from the bumpers and skirts on my car the rest is proper metal, i mean how many osfs have fiberglass panels and front bumper lips and ducktail spoilers and more, so in essence there just as plastic, the only big thing thats plastic is the dash but i know you have all seen the insides of mk2 onwards granadas capris and escorts theres my 2 bob
geoffersmasher Posted December 30, 2009 Author Report Posted December 30, 2009 I like an oldskool ricer, just not keen on the placcy ones I know this has been around for ages but I love it not the placky ones? this has a plastic dash, arches, front lip, mirrors and modern alloys ....everything your supposed to hate about plastic crap jap?
stevepeanut Posted December 30, 2009 Report Posted December 30, 2009 I love my cortina and capri, but would trade them both if someone offered me a 400 bhp properly sorted 7mgte supra
over_head_cam Posted December 30, 2009 Report Posted December 30, 2009 I think you're missing the point Geoff. A 'plastic' Escort (fwd) is also 90% made of metal, but in the eyes of most on this forum it's shite. That's why we're here and not on www.boxy_soul-less_fwd.com For some old fords are an integral part of them, there is nothing else. For others it's a fleeting visit or just an 'interest' or a case of "Oh that's nice and Johnny's got one so I will as well" This is Chit Chat and everyone can post pretty much what they want to (within reason) but posting ricers on an old Ford forum is bound to get mixed reactions

mk1super Posted December 31, 2009 Report Posted December 31, 2009 There nice Geoff as long as your enjoying the car thats what counts

over_head_cam Posted December 31, 2009 Report Posted December 31, 2009 Maybe I was exaggerating to make a point I should never have mentioned the Mk3. Sorry
geoffersmasher Posted January 1, 2010 Author Report Posted January 1, 2010 Maybe I was exaggerating to make a point I should never have mentioned the Mk3. Sorry Its ok I forgive you. We all do. Now let's not ever mention it againH
