Spot Posted August 15, 2015 Report Posted August 15, 2015 Hi folks just a quick into as it looks like i may be coming back to mk1 owner ship after a 20 break.I like all the old fords right upto the early 90s but have never owned one that made me grin like my old rs.I was tempted buy a few standard cars but instead have gone for a nicely modded pinto powered car.Once my deposit is down i will put up some pics as i am sure a few people here will know it well.
PeteRS8084 Posted August 15, 2015 Report Posted August 15, 2015 Well done a great move, you will love the ownership and brotherhood/sisterhood. This is a great forum, great guru's and brilliant banter. Pictures when you get her. Welcome. Pete
Spot Posted August 16, 2015 Author Report Posted August 16, 2015 Thanks for the welcome folks and as Mickey has assured me the car has my name on it here she is A well know car here i think.My plan was to scratch this itch with a standard car but as i enjoy driving my cars when this came up i just couldn't say no 1
SmokeEm Posted August 16, 2015 Report Posted August 16, 2015 Franks car, not Mickeys' surely? Frank bought it and was a little disappointed with it so spent out £££ to make it right with HPE. Mickey then bought it from Frank AFAIK but I stand to be corrected. Lovely car whatever!
Spot Posted August 16, 2015 Author Report Posted August 16, 2015 Tbh i no very little about the car but know Mickey through my interest in the rs500,he tends to have some nice cars so when he offered me this i found it hard to refuse
khanlad Posted August 16, 2015 Report Posted August 16, 2015 I've seen it somewhere but no idea where? Great help, as usual!
Callum. Posted August 16, 2015 Report Posted August 16, 2015 Lovely car! Jeff harris was driving that on For the Love of Cars. Want a set of those wheels myself
luckyjim Posted August 19, 2015 Report Posted August 19, 2015 a great choice of car to come back with welcome.
Milner Posted August 20, 2015 Report Posted August 20, 2015 When will it be here then mate soon I hope
Spot Posted September 13, 2015 Author Report Posted September 13, 2015 Finally picked her up Yesterday unfortunately my better half fancied the first go and kept hold of the keys for the whole 170 mile home leaving me viewing the escort doing the fly pasts from my transit van.Prized the keys from her today and so far very pleased with the car,fast enough for a bit of fun with a sound to die for.I have a few very small things i would like to sort over the next few months,rev counter needs wiring and she seems to have a bit of wheel wobble when turning left at speed but nothing to major.A few pics of our outing today as i know people like pic's 3
