Thanks guys! Cars been annoying lately so need to keep motivated haha. Arch repair done, needs painting but it's expensive so it'll have to wait for a while - should be interesting considering I'm supposed to be bringing it to Players show on Sunday

Some updates.

Been working on it:


Finally put a carpet in!


Went to places:


And today I picked up my new wheels. Slotmags again but wider and lower offset. And shinier. They're gunna look the tits with some tires on

[jaake]

Still waiting on tires. Looks cool still!

[jaake]

Sold my slotmags to buy tires for my other slotmags. Rolling on steels for the meantime

[jaake]

Finally got tires, redrilled wheels to fit and they're on!

[jaake]

Oh and I got another 5, made a start on that..

[jaake]

Update time.

I got the Cinq mot'd/legal since it had been sat for 3 years when I bought it



It'll be my new daily as I've finally got this for the escort


Goodies include...



So I'm excited. Depending on current power it should be at least double when it's all together

This is perfection. Reppin it hard for the old school ford scene. Well done

Thanks guys! I met up with a photographer recently for some snaps and a write up on the Escort, I'll post that up when it's ready. The photos are here though! You can see all his coolness on flickr/facebook/instagram/etc.





And a roller that a random person on their travels took when they spotted it. I found the pic on fb

Cheeers, I really want a Mk1 but I can't afford another haha.

1's and 2's are cool as they're rear wheel drive unlike all the ones after
