Yeah I must make it to the steam fair one day,I'm steam mad so would be good, just the crowds of people and traffic jams been putting me off lol :-( I've got a saph Cossie mate. It's good to read about a "proper" classic ford on here for a change though

hi thanks well ive been on phone to tickford capri they phone back tmrow with price for all new suspension.im not the brightest but its cheaper to get capri gas stuts than it is to get mk 1 or mk2 escort so im going to sit down when they phone cos i might die if i fall down.
the vat is the worst bit cos you pay 20 pcnt and get nothing it dont seem fair .
ive also asked old ford if they can get price for same parts to see how much cheaper it might be im going to get steering kit of them so hope they will get a deal. it never hurts to ask does it.austin
