That 4dr is a little bright.

I'm 100% on the 15x7 10 spoke Superlites now. Went to Sandown for a Chev show, and somehow managed to find the rsocvic and ffcc track day. Hmm.
Anyway, there was a nice Capri there with the Superlites, and I spent ages just staring at them, look awesome. So I'll put the order in tomorrow, won't be ready in time for Canberra though.

If the guy who's doing the engine is on time, the green one will be leaving Tuesday, and hopefully back within the next week or so. I might be cutting it a bit fine. [B)]
Oh well, I'm back off into the shed to sit and stare at it some more.

oh so it is the same one. I saw that the other day going through old topics. Wasn't sure if it was or not. What a history this car has had!

Still trying to uncover it all, a guy on cardomain thinks he used to own it so I'll try and get onto him.

Scortfreak...

John cutler built the car himself in that same yard the picture has been taken...

he bought it as a bare shell in primer.. they did some extra body work and got it looking like it is... his father is a spray painter and sprayed the car in that yard too so as you can see its a pretty good job. considering the paint is getting old, and also there is only 2 coats of paint on the car!!!

John sold the car to that fella off cardomain who had problems with it apparently. i think you said his name was fred?? Fred had the car for about 2 or 3 months apparently not sure and then sold it to my friend who loves his v8's he bought the escort as a runabout for work but got sick of the lack of power. (worked pinto???) and i grabbed the car off him!! thats the story to date now you have it!!! john had is at the fast fours jamboree in 2002 or 3?? cant remeber which one...

Thanks Ty.

She's leaving in the morning. At least I'll have the yellow one back to play with while it's gone. [B)]

Does anyone make fibreglass MK1 boots/bonnets? Hoping to get a pair for the track. Also looking for some trumpets, but I think I can get them through the guy who's doing the engine.

Off it went. Doesn't look like it will make the Canberra meet, but fingers crossed. [B)]
