Oh well, waiting game now mate, fingers crossed it won't take too long !!! Looking forward to the results !!!
-
Not half mate, slow down lol, looks great !!!
-
Don't waste your coin mate, they will show up just like your first DIY effort !!! Do what I did, one LED bulb (I used white, other colours are available lol) in the origanal holder and put a small 2mm x 2mm peice of electrical tape on top of the LED like I did, it reduces the focal effect !!! Better still, for £1 i'll send you a WIDE angle LED bulb that spreads the light not focalise it like normal ones do as they have a lense on the end !!!
-
WOW !!! :wow: Its coming along niceley mate, the Cab looged good before hand to but I like your smoothed in skirts, nice touch, you should fill in the two tram lines on the rear quaters and the doors to get it extra smooth !!! Keep the pics coming !!!
-
If you two need a new pump I have a full set up for sale in my 'Bargain Basement' post, I can't sell it seperate as the other bits won't sell, but i'll do it as cheap as I can !!!
-
Nice one mate, one less job to do !!!
-
Nice one mate !!!
-
As long as the Missus is happy mate thats all that matters, glad its sorted !!!
-
Looking good mate, nice and shiney !!! I'm still waiting for my gear to arrive, bloody posties !!! Keep the pics coming mate, keep us posted on your other bits too !!!
-
Smart looking pods mate, keep us updated with pics once you finish it off !!!
-
There are filler cap kits on Demon Tweeks' site, best still, get a free cataluge, other than that, you could get a filler replacment panel for a Mk5a and bond it on and just have a conventional cap !!!
-
Nice one, looks smart up there, they don't stick out as much like thery were on top of the pods !!!
-
Might be cheap as most peeps don't have double DIN sized openings, My Mk5a didn't, Mk6's and Focus' do, and Tranny vans lol !!!
-
Hi Beccy, Mine did the same, just wind your window down a couple of inches with the door OPEN, close it and raise your window fully !!!
-
If you get it going get a vid on YouTube or PhotoBucket !!!
-
Mine used to do that after a couple of days mate, new battery sorted it for me !!!
-
Nah, they f###ed up I think mate, your Cab is the right colour, the DASH Special Edition only came in RED (Maroon) over Silver and BLUE over Silver !!!
-
Your doing really well mate, just get the worst bits sorted then get the whole thing blasted and powder coated, the blasting will show up all the pitted rust bits to be replaced !!!
-
If you need a hand when your home mate me and Eggsy will give you a hand any time !!!
-
If its a front wing just get a new one, the rust won't come back, if its the rear wing, you can get replacement panels to repair the rot, just go to a very reputable body shop, worth a laugh asking FORD !!!
-
Hi Mate !!! I was on ebay last night and found this grille, not sure what style your going with but I thought you might like a look !!! Mk3 Grille on ebay: http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/FORD-ESCORT-MK3-GRIL...1QQcmdZViewItem
-
The prices are pretty good going mate, just do the 'Week Test' !!! Keep looking for better prices for one week before you buy them !!!
-
It will always look daunting at this stage but once you do some repairs to the inner wings and get the new slam and wings on it will look 100% better !!! Just remember, once its done it won't need doing again until 2017 !!!
-
Looks good so far mate, it does not look too bad for the year and with it being white the rust is easy to find, get the grinder out and plod on !!! Keep the pics coming as I am watching this project with great intrest !!!
-
Lol @ Matt-the-DJ !!! Good work Mick, can't wait to see it at the next meet, hope you fixed your steering !!!
