Would like to start by saying... A big THANK YOU to ENDURO (Graham) for the loan of his rollover jig and to JOHNYLOCK (John) for the new headlight. Went to the lakes on Sunday, It was good to meet some of the lads of here and put faces to names and to see some of the lads from my early Rs day (17 years ago)

A GREAT DAY.... Well done to all involved.

Well got home and started on the car.... Now its on the Jig. That was a task in its self, Two more dents in the car now Anyway i will post some pics in the morning.

As anyone got a pair of mk2 escort bumper irons ( not rs ones they bend)

[Hoogi]

Andy, couldn't make the Lake although I only live about 10miles from Heaves Hotel !!!!!!!!!!

Still sat on an Oil Rig at the moment......didn't bother me though !!!!!!!!!!

Have some Front Irons but not home until Thursday........they're yours if you want ?

The struts are now done, with new springs and vents.



The next few are of the inner wings, Going to replace the top plate and the bowl,drip rail/ wing rail new kick panel. It took a week to get the sealer and underseal off.







There is also a plate to put on the front chassis leg.
