LEONMEX Posted January 24, 2007 Report Posted January 24, 2007 Got my front wings from "smith & deaken" they fitted s**t but after a bit of p***ing around they dont look to bad,but posse's wings are from old ford auto services & they looked the bolox

slimrs Posted January 24, 2007 Author Report Posted January 24, 2007 thanks tim, i never knew they were different, i parked up along side a 2 door and they are the same size and wheelbase just assumed they would be interchangeable
jay Posted January 24, 2007 Report Posted January 24, 2007 whats the differnce with van/estate wings to normal eccie wings???? is there a massive differnce..????
tim Posted January 24, 2007 Report Posted January 24, 2007 nar there different and the doors are different aswell,i know the swage lines are different
escortmad79 Posted January 25, 2007 Report Posted January 25, 2007 Mk1 vans/estates front wings are the same as Mk1 saloons Mk2 vans/estates front wings, the swage line is higher or lower (forget which) than it is on a Mk2 saloon as the shell apart from the front end are the same as the Mk1 van/estate! I made the mistake when looking for a wing for my Gold Mk2 years ago & now have a N/S estate wing in my posession!

MightySprocket Posted January 25, 2007 Report Posted January 25, 2007 mine are from Old Ford Auto's, quality is supperb! Passenger side fit like a Ford made item, having a ikkle bit of bother (as is Posse & Twinkle) with the drivers side but Chris at Old Ford is sorting I hope... watch this space
deluxe Posted January 25, 2007 Report Posted January 25, 2007 think the wings for 2 door and estate are different from 4 door around the hinges (for mk1s )
