Default Cant Wait! (appreciation when pissed thread lol)

Just thought that as im pissed id share this information with you.

I feel a bit sad really, im so looking forward to seeing my cosworth again tommorow lol.

Am i the only one? Its been away for two days and ive only had it for 5 days.

Its had all new sensors and a load of time and effort on it, also a full service.


Gonna be 22psi and running really well, should have got rid of most of the smoke by then too.

Im all excited lol.

What is it? ive had much more expensive and powerfull machinary but im just so excited.

i think its the effort joe puts in, fantastic service and so much ffort into every car?

Thoughts and opinions guys?

Why do we love our old fords so much?

Bit of ford appreciation for once!!!

My Esc Cos is sitting in me garage and has been for 3 years. I want to restore it, painting inside, outside and underneath with mostly new parts and an more bhp. I can't afford it at present and don't wanna strip it down only to sell the parts off when I can't be arsed anymore only to regret it!

Ive put her up for sale 3/4 times, but it never got further than a for sale ad as I don't really wanna get rid of it.

When I get my own garage (Too many people visit my current garage so stuff might go missing and it is a mess, so I would loose parts) I will start the work.

I miss her quite a bit, but couldn't bring myself to put her back on the road as she is as I will loose heart.
