      Hope to get the rs 1700t finished, then start on my road car, and finish that, to use daily.

      As and when try to do a bit more to grp 4 (eg engine)but wont finish the car this year (again) due to dosh.

      But we all know how our good intentions, get quashed.

      We will see!

          Well my MK2 is back from paint in a couple of weeks, cant wait.
          Then its a start on the wiring....scary eh!
          I would like to think I can get the car running and on the road this year, lets see how things go. My most recent update is on this thread here http://bbs.rallyesportescorts.co.uk/...ad.php?t=43071

          I need to find a pinto engine and a laminated front screen, otherwise I have pretty much everything I need for the rebuild.

          Happy New Year
          Why do we pay others to do a job we did ourselves?

          Ever paid for conveyancing?

                will be selling the one I got off frosty in the near future, very good condition wheel so look out for the ad
                You'd best not be asking more than £100 for it mush

                    My New Years resolution was to rebuild the MK1 into it's former glory.

                    So since Friday i've secured a rebuilt x-flow rally engine, probably a dog box too.... and booked it in to have the following. Gussets/ turrets/ big tunnel/Chassis skids/axle brace/ seat rails/ rebuild front end and add reinforced strut tops.... I've been busy!!

                    My aim is the PK Memorial rally in late June as that will be 10 years to the event since I last used it, then my local event the Gogledd.(Maybe Snowdonia tour if it runs?) and then finally the Cambrian Historic stage rally....
                    I'm well excited about this year!!!
