Essex boy keeping it old skool with a 73 mexico

[73mexicoboy]

Been looking at different forums and thought of see what this ones like. Ive been rebuilding my mk1 escort Mexico on and off for the last 3 years, recently rebuilt all the runnning gear and put it on, dropped the engine and box in so she's rolling, just got to make up some more brake pipes, clutch pipe and a few little bits and bobs the. Can crack on with the interior and exterior, not long left now! Hoping to take it to Belgium in June with a load of mates to a hot rod show. Of anyone's got a 6point bolt in cage for sale or knows where I can get a full new loom please let me know

Welcome to OSF and thank you for signing up as a contributor so promptly

 

Look forward to seeing photo's of your car, how about posting some up in the resto room?

 

Loom? There aren't many options for new ones, the only one I've heard good things about are Autosparks

Hi everyone don't think I'll have the car done that quick but will defianatly have to go sometime. Whereabouts Down the a12. I'm from Upminster but just moved to kent recently, Im always in Essex and London though so will be going to ace cafe, Chelsea bridge. Used to go to the Dick Turpin on the a127 wednesdays a few years ago and it was always packed out. That all had to stop so don't know where everyone goes now?

Hi mate, welcome to the site. Always good to see more Essex OSFs here As said the monthly meet at the 8ball diner on the A12 near Witham has been going a couple of months now and will get bigger as the weather improves. Look in the 'meets' section for the monthly date. Obviously Chelsea cruise still happens the last saturday of the month, then there's the Wingspan meet surrey way which is popular and of course Boxhill. All within travelling distance for you!
