Post by kamikaze »

been away with other 'projects' notably my bike but couldnt resist tinkering with something over the coming months.Will be a cultue shock going from a GTO TT to this badboy I can tell you.Ive always had a passion for old Fords,owning a MK1 Escort and a 100E Pop before I got into the Jap scene.

Anyway ive gona and bought this monstrocity!Ive already got my Dads platforms and flares out for some Saturday Night cruising sometime soon-He He

Gene Hunt: They reckon you've got concussion - I couldn't give a tart's furry cup if half your brains are falling out. Don't ever waltz into my kingdom acting king of the jungle.
Sam Tyler: Who the hell are you?
Gene Hunt: Gene Hunt. Your DCI. And it's 1973. Almost dinner time. I'm 'aving hoops.

That and an RS 3.1 OHV V6 Essex engine with a 3 x 45 or 50 DCOE Webers and you have the makings of a fantastic driftmobile!!! :D

They only ever went round corners broadside so i reckon that would be as good as any Jap!!

Nice find!! :thumb:
Buggers cancelled my op just a couple of days before it was due. Inconsiderate barstewards!! :rant:
