hello mate, if you lowered it, the exhaust will be catching the speed bumps

.... thats why its that hight? but yes its a look'r

sapph1 · 23-03-2009, 11:11 PM

Absolutely gorgeous car!!!

Could do with a smaller tail pipe tho imo just to make it look more understated and really suprise people!!

Really lovely car though!!

hi mate, yes i agree mate, i think this is on his list with other things to do, as he wants me to make him up a 3" stainless steel exhaust system?

BigErn · 23-03-2009, 11:42 PM

Saw Simbo on Sunday down the meet, he went more or less as soon as I got there tho so never got a chance to speak to him. Was gonna ask him how it was gettin on.

timturbo · 23-03-2009, 11:44 PM

i had the same prob,s with ride height on my first mk1 cossie ? the only thing you can do is half tube the floor and run the exhaust down it, seen it done few times?

tabetha · 25-03-2009, 09:58 AM

Looks very nice, well put together as well.
I saw a mk1 escort mexico ESTATE last night, made enetirely by ford themselves, apparently only three were done this was daytona yellow, and mint, a trailer queen the man said.

yes mate that is one way of doing mate, but (simon the owner of the mk1) like's the ride hight the way it is....

so yes tunnel the floor to clear the exhaust to get the ass down to the weeds..

RSRACH · 09-10-2009, 04:06 PM

I have been in this car a couple of times as simon is one of our really good mates, it wheelies for fun put it that way. the exhaust is of one of our saffs, and it makes people want to know whats under the bonnet, at donny they were all looking under the front bumper to see what intercooler on etc, ha ha. it sounds mint too. he loves it and wouldnt like to see him selling, and when the time comes, I am going to the church in this car!!! lol cant wait.......
