"Old" Old Skool or "New" Old Skool. Which camp do you sit in & why??

[Frosticles]

Just a question

As for me, Old. Period perfect is just perfect.

[BlueIn2Red]

Old here too, but I'm happy to customise/modify as I would have done in the 70s, not at all concerned about keeping my car "showroom standard".

I'm with you keV...!!!!.....

[Dave1800BDA]

i must admit i tend to go with a standard car along with its parts, but admire all things that are well done, also like period mods.....so am i sitting on the fence lol

tbh standard is my way

Old school. Hate that work spelt with a K. Proper engines and proper garden shed problem solving.

[Mexicomark]

I suppose it is horses for courses really.

I'd quite happily put a cosworth, zetec, duratec motor in a 1300L, Ghia, Four Door, Van, Estate with the necessary upgrades.

But a Twincam, RS1600, Mexico etc... I like to see them with original engines & period modifications.
Although that would include FVA engines & oversize bubble arches

I like Ford Engines in Ford cars. But you will find me in the Old School.

Variety is the spice of life my friends. I appreciate the diversity of the classic ford scene ;-)

[Hoonabator]

If you could buy it from a Rallye Sport dealer it's good. If not then maybe not.

So I'm defiantly old old school I'd say.


Do admire the Sarf London look and the guys build some great cars but for be old old school not new old Skool

[ugly]

old skool, dont mind tasteful mods, aint too bothered about it being shiney or standard.
i have started to like some 'new' old skool, mk1 fiesta, mk2 granada etc but they arnt in the same league.

[wetandwindy2]

[mickeystewart]
