hi, just joined - lets talk fords!!
hi everone, just thought i'd say hi as i just joined up here.
i have a b reg mk3 escort 3door estate which im in the process of modding up. so far i've put on a genuine ford s1 turbo kit on her, i have rs1600i seats front and rear, lowered 35mm all round with 16' team dynamic five spokes in black. she's in her origonal dirty blue but i might change her for something a bit shocking yet but not sure. i changed her from 1.3 to 1.6 with a mk3 fiesa sport cvh and put a mk5 escort 1.8 zetac gearbox on her but the head gaskit , clutch ratchet and a whole load of things went wrong so ive juat gone and got hold of a 1.6 efi lump from an xr3i mk4 which is pretty mint so im getting that put in v.soon. then my plans are to either de-bumper her at the rear or find some chrome ones off something that will fit and play around with customising little things like the lights and things. anyone have any ideas what i could do to her as im open for offers about customising her. you dont see many of these going round so i want to do it proper and make her look wild.
i also have another ford but its not everyones cup of tea as its a 7.5L V8 1969 thunderbird which i got nearly a year ago it gives out around 360bhp . im just in the process of getting the heads redrilled so i can fit the manifolds and zaust and when i get rich (if i do) i'll be looking to get her tuned - supercharger lol and i might bring it down to a cruse some time for a laugh so if any one sees a twat in a girt metallic lime green yank goin round that'l be me !
