frankthefencer Posted July 9, 2012 Report Posted July 9, 2012 I have only 4 days to go until I pick my freshly painted mk2 shell up!!! I have been waiting for 5 months!!! The thing is I have most things however I need all new bolts. Does anyone know of a supplier. I want them to all match and not be different colours(all silver). The thing is they need to be the right sizes pitch etc. Anyone used a good supplier??
nik_plant Posted July 10, 2012 Report Posted July 10, 2012 i brought a lot of my bolts from from mc_motorsport on ebay they seem to cover most of the bolts I've need all zinc plated or stainless
frankthefencer Posted July 10, 2012 Author Report Posted July 10, 2012 I have looked at those on eBay. Was the quality and sizes ok??
James HPE Motorsport Posted July 10, 2012 Report Posted July 10, 2012 Frank you numpty, speak to my dad! There is a nut and bolt supplier down the road and he has a big stock!!! Im sure if you took what you were after down to him, he would match them up for you in the silver zinc plated allen or hex head type!!!
frankthefencer Posted July 11, 2012 Author Report Posted July 11, 2012 Numpty???? Cheeky git!! I will speak to mr Harris and ask him where he gets them from. Thanks.
frankthefencer Posted July 14, 2012 Author Report Posted July 14, 2012 Here are some pics. I like it!! http://pbckt.com/pl.uxZl43
frankthefencer Posted July 15, 2012 Author Report Posted July 15, 2012 I like it. Just looking forward now to start building it. It's not a concourse car just a nice usable escort. I will add the pics of the engine Jeff Harris has built me on photo bucket.
James HPE Motorsport Posted July 16, 2012 Report Posted July 16, 2012 looks the nuts Frank! Cant wait to see your engine in this and running!!! Now get cracked on building it!!!
dalmarshall Posted July 16, 2012 Report Posted July 16, 2012 That looks wicked! Looking forward too seeing this come together
nik_plant Posted July 16, 2012 Report Posted July 16, 2012 Lovely car, lovely engine, lovely garage!!
James HPE Motorsport Posted July 16, 2012 Report Posted July 16, 2012 Hey frank, you should really start a build thread for this!! I know how maticulous you are so it will be stunning when finished!!!
frankthefencer Posted July 17, 2012 Author Report Posted July 17, 2012 I will try my best with the build!!! Thanks for the comments guys. Like I said it won't be concourse but it should turn out quite nice. How did you get my pics up James?? I can never get my pics up just the link.... then again I am crap with computers!! Will I be able to put 9x13s front and rear??
James HPE Motorsport Posted July 17, 2012 Report Posted July 17, 2012 If you go to the pictures on photo bucket, there is a table on the right hand side. If you click on the one that says IMG it will say "copied" and then you just paste in into the forum! As the meerkats would say, "SIMPLES" I would have thought 9's would fit frank, with the forest arches! What wheels you thinking? Go for some tasty Image wheels

You have MBE Fasteners in Bearsted Nr Maidstone, although not the most helpful of places! http://www.mbefasteners.co.uk/ I now use a company in Guildford called Margnor Fasteners, the guy is a nut and bolt anorak and very helpful http://www.margnor-online.co.uk/ BTW. The shell looks wicked mate
