the-ford-cortina.com 226 Posted August 5, 2016 (edited) put a free ad on carandclassic.co.uk if no-one on here wants to buy it you might be best explaining that Signal Red is orange :juggle: Edited August 5, 2016 by the-ford-cortina.com Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Danish 294 Posted August 5, 2016 (edited) put a free ad on carandclassic.co.uk if no-one on here wants to buy it you might be best explaining that Signal Red is orange :juggle: Good point - I've amended it. Yes, i was going to put it on car and classic, but I submitted it to Classic Ford mag recently thinking it would take them a while to process the ad, but it's in "Classic Car Buyer" today... I rarely get any 'phone calls so was puzzled to come in from the workshop this morning to find a load of missed calls. So hurriedly uploading now so I'm not asked why I didn't put it up here first! :thumbup: Edited August 5, 2016 by Danish Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I'd prefer it to go to someone I know, rather than an anonymous person from a classified advert :thumbup: I'll PM you my contact details!
