LEONMEX Posted April 25, 2011 Report Posted April 25, 2011 Going back about 8 or 9 years there was a feature on 3 mk1 mexicos in classic ford. They where white,blue & green & from london area. Any body else remember the feature & are the cars still about??
dacar Posted April 25, 2011 Report Posted April 25, 2011 I can remember a feature on South London Mk 1,s about 2000ish, I think I might still have it but I'll have a look and see.
LEONMEX Posted April 25, 2011 Author Report Posted April 25, 2011 I will cross your palm with silver if you want to part with it
emu Posted April 25, 2011 Report Posted April 25, 2011 I'm probably wrong as its one of those snippets of info that has no reason to be lodged in my head, but I seem to think that one of them (the blue one??) belongs to a member on here........'Girl Racer' I think her username is

samurai Posted April 26, 2011 Report Posted April 26, 2011 Ill dig it out today, I have loads of mag's. ill try to sell them
samurai Posted April 26, 2011 Report Posted April 26, 2011 I had a look and its not in my mag box which means my nans gay dog got hold of it! I remember that section you want, what is it you want tho? just the mag or the info that was in that section? It was my first classic ford mag
dacar Posted April 26, 2011 Report Posted April 26, 2011 Here's some I looked out but I don't think this is what your looking for although the pics to the right of the blue and white one come from an article in an earlier edition, this was June 2000, I have right back to Nov 1999 but not in any. Spent hours hunting and found loads of usefull stuff like a guide to RS alloys etc.
tim Posted April 26, 2011 Report Posted April 26, 2011 i can remember 2 south london cars in a joint feature,le man green and light blue,the blue car had a waxoyled engine bay,this would of been 2001 ish

sparkycapri Posted April 26, 2011 Report Posted April 26, 2011 Probably got this one. will have a look through the pile of old mags. I remember the article, there were 3 cars. I have seen the blue one about last year I think as she still has it but not sure about the other 2 motors. got most of the classic ford back issues & even some old Ford Heritage CF's precursor If any one can rememder that far back! I was looking threough some old mags yesterday & found Puddys MK2 tina fast car feature
LEONMEX Posted April 26, 2011 Author Report Posted April 26, 2011 Thank you all for your efforts,it is just one of the features that has stuck in my mind. Was just curious as to if the cars still are about,did not realise that the blue mk1 was one i have raced at pod & really is the business STILL. I have spent ages looking for my old mag but i gave my mates son aload years ago & im gutted as this was one of them Always good to keep the old mags,they make for intersting reading & how cheap are the cars in the back
emu Posted April 26, 2011 Report Posted April 26, 2011 Isnt it strange how certain features seem to stick in people heads. I don't know what it is about some that set them apart from others, but thats one of them

Mrs O/H/C Posted April 27, 2011 Report Posted April 27, 2011 And (Girl Racer)Kerime,s sister is called Ayshe (hopefully spelt it correctly,could never get it right ) Anyone remember a feature showing 3 black saarrff london cars (2001) Black Mk1 Cortina..Black 100e and a Black Corsair ??
Arfur Posted April 28, 2011 Report Posted April 28, 2011 August 1999 issue with a red Anglia on Two Gates rims on the front cover. It was Kerime's, her sister Ayshe's and Lee Gentry's Mk1s. Great feature. Mainly because I wrote it.
supersonic Posted April 28, 2011 Report Posted April 28, 2011 Could classic ford do a where are they now feature ?
mr zefect Posted April 28, 2011 Report Posted April 28, 2011 The green one i painted it inside out in about 1996/97 i think when my mate oldschoolgezer (george) had it before lee. george bought it as a unfinished project off a old mate simons mum and dad simon who had died in a car crash and was in the middle of restoring it before he died with jon tickle on the 217 in sutton. It would be nice to no what hapened to it. i remeber when george finshed it it looked lush.
LEONMEX Posted April 28, 2011 Author Report Posted April 28, 2011 Was it really 1999,thanks for the date Arfur i know what im looking for now. The cars had an influence in my mk1 as it was nearly bubble arched but after seeing them i kept it simple & on 13s & even had the square plate for a while I will find a copy Thanks all for the info
