Cheers Ale.

 

Here's the last pics, hit the m6 at Carlisle and then off at Moffat and up via the "Devil's Beef Tub". Had a "she pee" stop for the dog so took some pics.

The above pics were taken last weekend when we went for a walk up the "Grey Mare's Tail" near Moffat.

A gid wee run and as usual car running spot on although I need to get rid of the self adjusting clutch pedal as there's about 2" of free-play before the release bearing starts pushing the diaphragm springs(!)

Thinking this'll be the last month on the road before I put my B3 coupe quattro back on the road for winter.....looking forward to this just like I'll look forward to getting the mk5 back on the road in the spring!!

The car is looking stunning as usual :thumbup: There is a run on Sunday to Glencoe, quite a few clubs attend this and is now known as the last run of the season. Kicks of at Tyndrum (Green Welly) at 11am and lunch at the Kings House. Its a great day and the craic is great.

 

Would be good if you can make it and would be nice to have two white Cortinas on the run

 

Below is a link to some of last years pics, i attended in my white and blue mk1 Escort

:( Dammit .....working all day Sunday, or I'd be there.

Mitch. Your Escort looks the business. :thumbup:

..........two white Cortinas'??? what is the other one?..yours?

What a wide range of cars last year, something for everyone's taste.

.....wish I could change a shift to be there on Sunday but there's more chance of pigs flying unfortunately.

 

Thanks Mitch,

Hopefully next year.

John.

Ford in ford!

We had a run down to Langholm yesterday as my wife was taking part in their running/biking event. Turned out really nice weather wise and a good run for the Cortina. Took some pictures, here's the 'tina ones.

My good lady volunteered as photographer as she wasn't keen to do the driving.......and the dog didn't know what was going on!
