Guys i am currently in the UK having attended the Donegal International Rally
To watch Almost 60 MK2 Escorts in a field of 150 is mind blowing
I will post pictures and video on my return
I have also used the opportunity to visit some old suppliers and discuss such things as fuel tanks, radiators etc
As most of you know Hadrians who were a big panel supplier went broke late last year and I have since reinforced my contacts with another large supplier I have used for years to ensure regular supplies still are available for our classic MK1 and 2s
Some brand new tools being made at this time will result in a brand new repressed and better fitting MK1 Twin Cam Guards as well as MK1 Round grills, complete MK1 full floors as well as brand new heater bowls which are being made with more steel to fix the dodgy bulkhead section as well below the actual bowl
This can be cut off if it is not needed but an excellent idea
I will post pictures of the tooling once I get access to a P C
So good news all around and more details later
Cheers rob

Heater bowl with the bulhead section sounds like a great idea.

Looking forward to the pics and vids Rob!!!
Cheers

Bring it on... Great work Ulsterman...

Thanks guys
Will post pics when I can
I have taken a lot of video of the rally and downloaded all the clips from my iPhone in real player format
Can anyone help with adding it all together to make one video I can upload as it is all short 15 second clips?
Is there a programme I can use to do this? I tried windows movie media but it isnot compatible with real player cheers rob

Hi,
 
 Attached some pictures of the new Heater Bowl mould being made as well as the factory floor.
 
Also some pictures of the Rally at Donegal.
I am still having trouble with editing the video clips together into one so I can upload to Utube.
 
Cheers Rob





 

Hi rob i think in quicktime pro you can join clips..if you have regular quicktime go to you tube and search "quicktime pro free"..it gives you the quick way to get it free.. then open the first clip trim it as needed, then go to the edit menu and "add to movie" and im pretty sure you can select another clip.. and keep editing and adding movies then at the end save it all as one clip.. if you get stuck i can help ive also got Some HD editing software i use for incar and stuff
 
Cheers

Im sure heater bowl/firewall panels will be a massive seller. Theres another thread on this forum where Jaycees is asking wether anyone is making them....I guess here is the answer

If suited for MK2 application I will be eagerly awaiting release with credit card in hand along with many others I'm sure.
 
While the RS2000 doesn't really need it at this point in time I will quite happily stash one in the back of the shed for the dark day when she does.
 

yep id be interested for sure!! the heater bowl /firewall is on the replacement list!!!
