retro ford magazine

[lathamescortmk2]

not out until next march, but another ford magazine for us old skool modders

[morcheen]

it shows that they are confident in the boom in classic fords
now we need some cheaper re-manufactured parts,like mk1 mex wings,£700 a pair is a big mad!

[lathamescortmk2]

i was speaking to the deputy editor, and he says that its going to be aimed at the more 'modified' classic fords, instead of the concours jobby's or the tried and tested rally look cars etc.

should be good!

[morcheen]

a clone of classic ford,why?

so excactly what classic ford does now!

[lathamescortmk2]

no, not at all, classic ford is so bloody boring, with there 'slightly modified' rs's and rally cars,

[morcheen]

i cant see what difference it will be from your description? i hope its better than CF is at the moment,we will all have to wait and see.more motorsport coverage of classic fords would be a great start.

[Tim]

i know there a good motorsport feature goin 2 b coming up in classic ford mag soon

[lathamescortmk2]

tehres a lot more to modifying a car than idfs, 7.5's and tarmac arches

[morcheen]

will it give other makes a chance,not just mk1/2 escorts all the time?

[posse]

its deffo not going to be escorts all of the time.

[lathamescortmk2]

apparently so.

[Dingy]

Old School shootout was a good laugh, never seen anything like that in classic ford.

So the only thing i know about is something that aint in the other mag so thats 100% different at present LOL

[repsol]

if you all hate the classic ford mag so much dont buy it !!!! then it will change to meet demand i buy it as its the only one. i have sent loads of pics for your yard and emailed them on several occasions to ask things but never had any reply or pic /letter in the mag and also i think the standard classic ford that is standard and mint which is never featured should be featured!!! as there are so many cars out there not being considered beacause they have not got a cossie in them a good all round mag suits everyone i hope everyone reads this inc cf editor and post me a reply

retro mag

I know both the boys that are setting up this mag and it will be better and a fresh start away from classic ford.
Both of the guys are into classic fords bigtime.

As has been said above a few of us have taken part in a group thrash for the tuned escorts. Classic ford are only interested in static features.All the escorts had proper timed runs.

Escorts will be a big part of the mag,but they will be doing features on all classic fords.
Its just escorts are more popular.....as we all know.

Spec sheets and facts on the cars will be right,unike classic ford !!
And no rusty cars on the cover...

Can't wait for the first issue early next year.
