How not sell things. What an arrogant nobhead.

Evening all. My car featured in this month's Classic Ford Magazine. I am not showing off -well maybe a little, or being conceited, I just thought some may like to see it and read it's story. I bought it 13 years ago and last year saw me at two shows on a shakedown. The restoration has been immense. ...

So my lad wants models to play with of the cars we have but as always there aren't any so I started buying similar and painting them etc. Now my work is about 2% and that's being generous of this guys work. It's geeky but I found myself watching it. Absolutely amazing effort, ideas and skill. Even i...

Tonight on Channel 4 at 21:20 Le mans 66" good film. Story of the GT40 and Shelby.

Or plus an hour 22:20.

Cracking film.

I watched the first episode it was ok. That was exactly what I said about it when the wife asked if I had seen it. OK sums it up. All issues shown were sorted or advised on how to fix, but seemed like it lacked something although I don't really know what :headscratch: Quite agree Andy, it lacked so...

Pretty cool . The real value in stuff like this becomes apparent when you try to find it .......might not be a lot of ££ but of great nostalgic historical value specially if you have the car too. This is the sort of thing that should tell a prospective buyer ( should you ever want to sell your Capr...

That's great to have in your history file, there is some cool stuff there. I particularly like the '81 TT race programme, if anybody is interested, photos, full entry list and results can be found here: https://www.racingsportscars.com/etcc/photo/Silverstone-1981-09-13.html Andrew. Thanks Andrew. T...

I have been through my paperwork and thought I would share this cool stuff with you. Some of you may have it or seen it but some may not.

Thanks for the replies. Steve Capri did the resto on it. I helped where I could and learnt about Capris. It's got supurb history which is what I like about the car. I would have done the same to a Cameo or 1.3L etc. I am over the moon with it and I think as most people agree, these things are never ...

Nice work. I have just done this for my son as they don't do an ST500, Focus. He loved it so I'm happy with the end product

So, 42 years ago Mr & Mrs Brooks collected thier car. On the very same date 29, years later I took ownership. From 2010 until last summer the car has undergone restoration. I took it too a couple of shows as part of a shakedown. Some gremlins to sort but nothing major. Incidentally I have owned ...

20220927_095419.jpg Pleased you are on the mend mate. Wow!! That is stunning, great find. I saw there was or is another OZ RS3100 on ebay in Olympic Blue. I love MK1's and the flat fronted 4 spokes are supurb. I will keep an eye out. It looks good in white with the stripes which is a bonus - but an...

This is worth being a sticky if such a thing still exists? You enter and then puts specific model in the search Barr. All free.

Long time no see mate. I sold the Lotus and I had a mk1 cortina gt that done and sold.I also had a 3 d...

Rent a Ghost. Think Grotbags dies this year. Excellent programme wasn't it, this Grange Hill and Blue Peter for me.

Just caught up with your progress Paul and I have to say it looks sh*t, you must be disappointed. I am a charitable sole so if you want I will take it off your hands so you can start again with something else. 👍 🤣🤣🤣 Looks excellent.. Have you got rid of the Cortina Lotis or started a collection?

Merry Christmas and Happy New Year. Same to all and everyone on here.

Do Ford keep build records of our cars? I sometimes use to find build spec sheets on the rear seats etc. I just wondered whether anybody had contacted Ford and asked?

Also how accurate are build plates and sheets - how far did Ford keep to the specs excluding dealer fit or intervention?

Cheers
