Pipster007 Posted February 3, 2007 Report Posted February 3, 2007 Very nice. Are you gonna keep it standard or turn it into a cossie bashing monster
pelvins Posted February 3, 2007 Author Report Posted February 3, 2007 totaly standard .............is that boring ?????????
Wessie Posted February 3, 2007 Report Posted February 3, 2007 m8 u got a bonkers anglia so you got to have a bonkers granny slam it with wide wheels
pelvins Posted February 3, 2007 Author Report Posted February 3, 2007 your obsessed with slammed motors
810 OUT Posted February 4, 2007 Report Posted February 4, 2007 plenty of potential there! cant wait to see what you do to her
Coff Posted February 4, 2007 Report Posted February 4, 2007 In my opinion, keeping a nice old car standard is the right thing to to. Of course, modifying a granada or escort with a cossie engine might be fun, but in 10-20 years time there might not be many original retro fords around (at least here in Norway). What fun would it be for the next generation and the generation after that not to see the beauty and functionality of old original fords? They might grow up to think that all fords from the 60's and 70's were Cossie equipped race cars, and that the fords from the 90's were only POS heaps of plastic (which is kinda the truth..) So I say: Keep it nice and original!
pelvins Posted February 4, 2007 Author Report Posted February 4, 2007 picked it up today 82000 miles !!
Wessie Posted February 4, 2007 Report Posted February 4, 2007 lol the insurance man would laugh in my face, a bit like he will when i try and insure the anglia
