I'm so far away in my build from even looking at this but i have a bee in my bonnet! 

I've bought an escort owners manual and a new folder. But the folder is too small for the book, anyone know if ford made a bigger folder or anything? If i cant find one ill get one made, thats how much its annoying me! 😂😅

That folder looks like a "modern " one, I think the you want was a plastic one.

There are companies in the UK that specifically make manual folders and can badge them accordingly. This is one I bought a number of years back from a seller in England.

Its the perfect size for original car manuals with space for other related booklets and documents. It also holds a pen and mini lantern I keep with a magnetic base that can light up the engine bay for night time break downs and also has a red flashing beacon to warn oncoming cars of an emergency ahead.

Love that lantern very period is it fomoco

No its a Hi Tech modern LED lantern that takes a CR123 lithium battery with the whole package as big as your thumb. It has three brightness settings, both red and green flashing beacon modes and SOS. The base magnet will stick it under-bonnet or anywhere as a work-light.

LOL I knew the moment I posted that someone would probably ask me that! I cant remember off the top of my head but will try look into it and let you know. They sold all sorts of car stuff and would badge it with just about any brand. Its not leather or anything but it is the nicest vinyl product I have seen in ages. Made in the UK.
