Those carby's look familiar Sterling. I saw them in Street Fords magazine # 58 page 014.

those twins look tops, there is nothing like looking into an engine bay full of side draughts

cheers guys! hypo4d, where did you get the wheels on your mk1? were they on when it passed the roadworthy? id love a set in silver or black.

They came with the car when I bought it.
I had 12 x 5" stockies on my escort when I got my roady, the alloys on there at the moment are Performance Tempest I think, 15 x 6.5 J.
You are only allowed 1 inch increase in width, they are .5" too wide !
The vehicle inspector said to me he doesn't care what I did with the wheels once I had the certificate, I could change them if I wanted to.

Aaron

mind me asking where you got your inspection done?

so dude, how come the escort is up on stands? got a good story to share with us do ya?

i was painting the centers, i hadn't done the rears yet.

i call bullsh!t

The real reason it's on stands is because you're putting a cut down 9" to go with the 4.6L modular motor with a Kenne Bell bolted on that you've secretly got hiding in the shed somewhere, you just didn't know you were doing it until now.

I'm bored, can't you tell?
