I agree, great colour and very good looking motor :thumbup:

Thanks guys, it's a 1209 Hans, I did try to start it but I need to replace the serviceavle stuff, leads weee broken etc etc...spins over well, all the lights indicators etc work!!

Here is my new toy, I am absolutely over the moon with it....had a little clean up today and hope to try and get it running!!!!

Of the convertibles!! The police thing is a left over from my neighbours police mk5!!

Wow....could you imagine that!!!😂😂

Here are some latest pics, got to finish cleaning it tomorrow ready for the Ace cafe run on Saturday

I don't know if just me but can someone still see the pics I posted at the start of the thread?

You coming down Pete?

I don't know where my pics have gone? The fly screen is similar to what you can get for audi's mercs, bmws etc...it actually works really well!!

Securon 254 seatbelts from Ebay....usually under £30 delivered each

I've now got NOA966X... :thumbup:

Sent you a pm

Where about date you?

All the Cossie conversions I have seen use the cortina V6 engine mounts??

Yay!! It works!!! I reckon you have nailed the suspension, it keeps nice and level on cornering!! You must be well chuffed!!!!

I can see PAL on the picture link thing, but when I click on it I get a message saying view on YouTube the owner has disabled access from other websites (or something very similar!)

The original rivets are quite soft, I normally centre punch them and drill the heads off

Car is looking good Jayne!! Do you have the title of your video? It says I have to watch it on you tube

yeah, I need to get a pic of both of them together!! :lol:

Cheers for the comments, I absolutely love it!! I will be keeping the alloys on, I prefer the look to the steels

Lol, I'm not sure!!! I don't know as I need two white ones!!

And some from yesterday.... Past Stonehenge!! Youngest daughter trying it out... Getting fuel... And roof down and drive to country pub! And tucked up for the night....

Well this came up on EBay and I didn't know of the car, it has spent at least the last 30 odd years in Wiltshire. The previous owner had it for 28 years and maintained it regardless of cost. It didn't sell on EBay, but I drove down Wednesday to view and the dealer let me take trim out etc to check on it. I was really quite impressed, it needs a tidy up here and there but is at the stage where it's not too late to keep it nice. It's a 2.0 GLS auto and drives superbly, I had though it would drive along with loads of scuttle shake like the escort cabs, but it is great and rigid..the auto box is fantastic, a nice easy cruiser!!! So this will be the Yat transport this year, looking forward to getting it tidied!! Some pics from the auction ad

Satin on the shroud....I don't think mk3's came with painted sills, that was a usual thing to do once sills replaced, body colour would look better
