 As you're clearly totally off your rocker and love obscenely rediculous and pointless cars, you'll fit in very well here mate! ;D  In case you're not sure, that was deffo a compliment!  Your Scorpio looks fantastic and I can't wait to see it for real. BTW...welcome!

wow. thanks for all the positive comments peeps,just doing what i enjoy you know? Anyway..more progress...got the bracket made up to mount the two 'show tanks' (ie pretty chrome ones) in a floating style. They cover up another tank behind that has the rear valves on and the start of the 3/4 line. The nitrogen cylinder sits in the cage in front of the tanks. I have done more work making up solid metal mounts for it.  More pics when i get time.. |

ok..bit of an update,busting to get the car done for bristol volksfest,but the engine had other ideas...no spark. Oh deep joy. So...after stripping everything back that i'd done and finding no faults at all I re-tidied it and was all prepared to spend out on a coils sender box when a mate suggested i try it again. So i did and it ran. Hmm. Anyway,the engine is all together now and all the parts added. Got to tidy a few wires up (they're the ones in red,so they're easy to spot!) and re-polish it after having my grubby mits all over it.  Also got the boot install (the air part at least) all in and running ok. Need to fix a few leaks on hose joiners,but nowt serious. Tried out the bigger front valves and damn they're loud! Gonna make people jump i reckon!  |

The more i think about this car, the more right it seems, no different to using thos 90's Caprices (?) etc. nice one. Not enough done with old Granadas/Scorps, would love one in any Mk!

 it doesn't matter if it's a Morris Marina or a Toyota Celica - it's what you do with it that counts |
