Thanks!!

Broadmoor and HigginsRST, both cars are stunning!!

 

Thanks. Blood sweat and tears dont even come close!

Broadmoor, you have a great selection of track cars, were either of the Mk2 Escorts restored?

 

There not mine fella i only own the grey 3 door..The rest are just a collection of mates cars..All were built from shells so kinda restored..

Funny enough the latest one that is being built now is S1

 

Phew, just been looking through the pics on your profile and thought you owned all the cars...proper green eyed monster going on.... The Mk2's are stunning, especially the all white one, If I were to build one that's how it would look...

Good news your doing a S1, will be a cracker if its anywhere near the standard of your 3dr!

 

mine before. minging rusty and diamond white!



after. a bit better looking not so rusty and frozen white...

 

stunning cars on here guys ,


cheers james

 

very nice motors

 

Cheers..The white mk2 is a strange mixed bag of bits...Its runs a M3 E36 rear Beam and 6speed M3 gearbox..and a Turbo's YB ..I havnt got any real pics of the build only this..


And it finished up like this

 

broadmoor, that car is stunning

 

Wow

What wheels are they and what size, and is that a custom front splitter blended into the front arches?

Sorry about all the questions its just I rarely see an 'old skool' Ford that stops me in my tracks


Soz supramat2000 for Hi-jacking the thread

 

Not really a resto but a repair and improvement.

Before



Getting there



All done

 

This looks really nice mate, how you finding joe's engine

 

The engine has been faultless and runs like a dream , Joe has put the first stage of boost into it and already feels damn quick so it should really fly once he has given its final set up

 

Hold on tight mate

F**king hell!!

Some work gone into that!!!

Fair play, looks awesome!!

 

I agree OMFG that is one turn around, and looks very nice i must say

 

 

 

Here's mine - full back to bare metal rebuild, complete engine rebuild - lightened and balanced bottom end, new 500CFM Weber/Edelbrock carb, fast road/race cam, lightened and balanced flywheel.

Zakspeed body kit (one off one piece front wings), fibreglass bonnet and boot, new 9"/10" x 16" split rims, stainless 4 into 1 pipes x2, atlas axle with 2 peice billet shafts, Corbeau racing seats with Schroth GT3 Cup harnesses, full cage - took me about 4 1/2 years to complete working as and when.

Newer, stronger LT77 gearbox to go in next weekend (after I broke the last one twice last year).

Really looking forward to getting out in it as much as possible in 2010, starting with Scotch Corner meeting at the end of March

 

these are stunning.. nice thread!
