DannoSupra Posted April 29, 2014 Share Posted April 29, 2014 As a race car, definitely.... as a road car, that might be too much Get the stock version of it. Ford BDG just the noise! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
grahamc Posted April 30, 2014 Author Share Posted April 30, 2014 What the RS engine? Im liking the idea of a revvy 2l 16v or even the RS1600 engine. Millington Diamonds look good, but maybe a little pricey:- http://www.millingtonengines.co.uk/sales/new-engines.html Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
grahamc Posted June 6, 2014 Author Share Posted June 6, 2014 Turns out that shipping works out a lot cheaper if I have 2 cars so there is a 2nd MK1 in the container 2nd car gets picked up next week and both should be shipped shortly after!

Hammer Posted June 7, 2014 Share Posted June 7, 2014 Loving that. Had two MK1's a Mexico and an RS1600 both original and both great cars. The driving feel and response were awesome and such great fun to drive, sideways with full control and confidence. Nice buy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

grahamc Posted August 14, 2014 Author Share Posted August 14, 2014 Thanks all, will definitely get some better pics and videos when I collect them. Cars are going straight in to be serviced and for an MOT to become road legal here Utterly stunning I bet they will be a lot of fun to take by the scruff and hustle down some windy roads. keep me in mind if you want them putting in a magazine down the line, Retro Ford is one of our titles. Thats what I am hoping for Awesome! The white one definitely, but the blue needs a few a touches to make it decent, both will more than likely have new wheels, clocks and seats Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Awesome! Will be posting up as I go with each, especially if we get a sub-section for non-supra projects. Not sure about the YBs yet, they sound awesome and produce good numbers, but is not just too much for the little car? I like the idea of a loud high revving 1600 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
