Mesh wheels are gone sorry to everyone else interested. Superlites I think I'm gonna have to keep for now, forgot how many Escorts I had that need to be rollable haha.

Did get the vented bonnet back on, made it look a lot less run down. Now just having a long hard think about keeping the 2L in it or going SR. So much for not touching it for a few months. Got into my head that I need a car for Small Ford Sunday, fat chance of that happening in time though haha, maybe by 2014 :P

I remember this car, gave me some good inspiration for my current mk1 project especially running 15" wheels.
Here's some pics i had of it..

Just keep in mind, no  matter how much time and money is spent on any car, there will always be something faster out there to beat it. 
I say keep it all Ford

bringing back so many memories this thread,
get it going again with the pinto as is, concentrate of the body work and paint as you can do it yourself, we both know another long winded project is the last thing you need. then when you get bored of driving it do as you wish engine wise, but im guessing the vk will be quick enough and this will be plenty fun through the windy stuff as itis.

Hey .....
Lucky man
 
Nice one
 
 
Cheers .... Del

Hey Blake, Its great to see the green machine back in the hands of some one that deserves it. Gotta say I still love that fluted bonnet, wish i kept it and never sold it to Ty ;-) It Would look great on my wall until i finally get another project.
 
Anyway congrats on getting the girl back, she was a beast in  her day and will now be a beast again
 
Stan.

Thanks man, I love that bonnet haha you definitely have good taste :P


Hadn't touched the car until Thursday night when I took it to the factory so it could give up its motor for my MK2... well it kinda found another one already

Good to see the project is still going.
More pics and details pronto! The more mk1's being built gives me more pressure to finish mine! 

Awesome project dude, are those photos in beauy? Definitely keen to see how sr install goes as ill be at engine stage in 6months or so!

Hey Blake any more progress???
