A bit of a change over the last few weeks I’ve now got my old W211 E240 Back after my father in law gave up driving Six years since he bought it from me and it’s still mint That in turn meant the S type had to go unfortunately But I made my neighbours day after I gave it to him I hate selling cars now so as the Mercedes came free I decided to give the jag to my neighbour as he absolutely loved the car The fiesta van I have decided will be going back into full bt spec, grey and its original bt logos Yesterday we spent a few hours stripping off the poor red paint It’s just falling off with a jet wash! Then it will get a good prep and hopefully go off to a pal for the repaint I managed to buy some nos 14” steels last week so i had four new tyres fitted yesterday and fitted mk2 fiesta centre caps on Not strictly original but I think they suit it fine

This quite simply the most iconic car ever to me, it was built in my area where I grew up and I saw it in pieces some years ago, it’s just superb to see it back to even better than it was originally…..legend

The escort now has a new outer sill on and is more or less ready for the weekender, need to get it down to my pals workshop to have one chassis leg welded up And just fit some new wiper blades !

Funny how seabrook said anything was welcome, it’s all about inclusion I’ve never forgotten him being caught on camera at an RR weekender deriding our escort van, not my favourite person…

So I just happened to come across a fiesta van local to us I couldn’t pass the house without a knock To cut a long story short I bought the van which hasn’t moved for a while An ex BT van but has had a home repaint at some point In post office red Plans are just to get on the road tidy up the paintwork a bit And use it for the summer , I’ve fitted the cosworth wheels on it And replaced the discs pads and a good service Nearly ready for its first mot since 2019 Just love the simplicity, non turbo diesel, no power steering and wind up windows😁

Ageing is definitely strange….picking up mk1 escorts from local shop ads for £300 almost monthly back in the 80s And cortina mk1 and 2s for less than that Times move on kids today have missed out on all that And the weekly climb around the local breakers Ahhhh the good old days😁
