I love the tension of the last few days to ford fair!! It builds a great atmosphere . I remember on Esc Evo, the trials and tribulations and the fight to get done in time. Brilliant

Last year I took the Friday before off work to plastidip my grilles (getting sunburned in the process!) This year she'll get a wash Friday night, blackhole and wax Saturday, a few bits and pieces sorted out, and hopefully we'll be done with enough time to get a decent night's sleep before the early start Sunday.

Dont you believe it, if passionford show stands were all about bling and being snobby I would not be running the events thats for sure, as its nice to see a RS500 parked next to a mild budget ford as variety is key to any enthusiast
