Hi all

I have been lurking for the past few weeks and enjoying the site immensely. There seems to be heaps of knowledge and enthusiasim and some very smick classic Fords!

I currently own a Mk2 Escort rally car which I built in the late nineties and a Mk1 1600 GT Capri which is almost finished after more than 20 years [:0].

I am attempting to post some photos of my first project from back in the late eighties when I was an apprentice mechanic.

    Thanks Guys.
    The (new aftermarket) swaybar snapped on the RHS under brakes into Honda Corner at Amaroo Park and I was a passenger after that Rhys.
    In the background you can just see the 1600GT I currently own.
