Tall paul Posted December 19, 2012 Report Posted December 19, 2012 Oh dear, what a waste Each to there own I suppose
Skimmer Posted December 19, 2012 Report Posted December 19, 2012 Been around for years ......I roof chopped a 2 door MK2 Escort about 25 years ago as 1 had never been done and my mate used it as a daily for a few years ......Good ol days
Skimmer Posted December 19, 2012 Report Posted December 19, 2012 Spot on though i think it was Low Buck Racin.....as non of us had much money still you got a good memory From the low buck cruisers!!
PCOE Posted December 20, 2012 Report Posted December 20, 2012 Lol yeah we were all skint Pmsl.... They were fun times I had a old blue mk2 consul.....
SmokeEm Posted December 20, 2012 Report Posted December 20, 2012 I remember the Mk2 very well as the I'm sure my old mate Chris from Wrecclesham, Farnham had it for a while. At the time we were roof chopping his Mk1 Granada 'Beetlecrusher' to take on the run to the sun. I was screaming about at the time in a roof chopped 1600e Those were the days IIRC Chris had a mate up Oxford way with a chopped Volvo 245 with a V8 in it (Worked at TVR I think)
PCOE Posted December 20, 2012 Report Posted December 20, 2012 We also had a roofless chopped A55 pickup which was Dee's fella's Satin black wiv red/white flames ,))
stuartp Posted December 20, 2012 Report Posted December 20, 2012 without the roof chop that'd look hard as nails! as it is it looks wrong and un-drivable to me
Andy44Boz Posted December 20, 2012 Report Posted December 20, 2012 The mk2 looks ok, love the scallops the mk1 just looks stoooooooopid imo
frankthefencer Posted December 20, 2012 Report Posted December 20, 2012 They were the days when people wasn't scared to chop cars up and try something a little different. Trouble is now we are less radicle because of the vehicle cost. Like them or loathe them they wasn't scared of giving it a go!!!!
Skimmer Posted December 20, 2012 Report Posted December 20, 2012 Yea i remember Chris was his ex wife called Mandy ???

Skimmer Posted December 20, 2012 Report Posted December 20, 2012 That was Nick and that was actually what is known as a bubble oxford (alot rarer than an a55) which was again hacked off by me and my mate John , Nick usually ended up with what we created after we got fed up with them We also had a roofless chopped A55 pickup which was Dee's fella's Satin black wiv red/white flames ,))
Skimmer Posted December 20, 2012 Report Posted December 20, 2012 Yea the good old days we chopped anything and everything back then and had a great time doing it , that MK2 Escort was tax n tested and solid and we paid 60 quid for it ......how times change They were the days when people wasn't scared to chop cars up and try something a little different. Trouble is now we are less radicle because of the vehicle cost. Like them or loathe them they wasn't scared of giving it a go!!!!
