It was Ł36, they had the race one too.

The thing is I've got money, but my paypals fucked!
I've just put a new card on it, so hopefully it will be fixed.
Just waiting for a code now.

I started on my blue Mk3 Escort project a couple of days ago,still a W.I.P il'l start a w.i.p thread later.Had a mishap with the drill this morning which resulted in the bodyshell flying across the room and ripping of both doors (which maybe savable) 1 mirror and the tailgate which broke the hinges .So i need another model to start again or has anyone got a complete shell (with doors/tailgate/bonnet & glass) i can buy?,also after a black bonnet if anyone got one spare
