Hello all, I have a couple of cars which are in danger of being 'finished' this year (but don't hold your breath!), so I thought I would sign up. First is a 1963 Ford Zodiac MK3 into which I have put a 302ci Ford V8, lowered and fitted bigger wheels. The second is a 1978 Opel Manta coupe with a Cosworth Turbo, also lowered with bigger wheels. Apologies, but no photos, no camera. I promise I will sort this when they are moving around under their own power. I like pretty much anything as long as it's too low to be practical...  |

Welcome to RR! Love the sound of both of your projects, quite different from each other which is nice to see! I'm sure you'll enjoy this forum |

Thank you all for the welcome. I am in East London/ Essex and a member of the Mk3 Zephyr/ Zodiac club. I have been in the Manta club on and off for many years, but am currently 'off'. I should have mentioned that the Zodiac is an estate (factory black/ red interior) which will run 16x7 American Racing TT2's. The Manta is a chrome bumper model which is factory 'International Distress Orange' and has 17" Racelines on it which I'm not crazy about, but got a good deal on! They are both really close to going, but I tend to slow up near the end of the project because I am not great at the details (namely wiring). I promise I will get some photos up asap!
