If it is anything like Fehlbie and his 1994 Escort Cosworth, the year 3005 is more likely..........[:o)][:x)][88]
P.S. I believe that Phil is on target for the 22nd Jan 2006 Cruise!!! Bravo! Then SFS and of course the "Dyno Day"...........

That date is a little early don't you think Mark. I might be pushing it to make it by then, If I fabricate my own parts and take the Tafe courses to learn how to do it myself I may have it completed before the idiots, who call themselves business's can manufacture them...[:o)][:o)][:x)][:x)]

Saw you handy work today Phil when I went and picked up my washer bottle. The diff and suspension is looking awesome and I saw the new car ready and waiting to be worked on. Don't think I have seen a Mk1 Cortina shell in that good of a condition, can't wait to see the final result. Had a good chat with your dad too..

Still don't have a radiator or a new battery...[}:)][}:)][}:)] Both companys however have assured me that I will receive them early next week (yeah right). I am not going to hold my breath. I would like to bring it along on the 22nd of Janurary if possible but it may not happen. Your progress is looking good, Do you think you will be attending on the 22nd?

That is the worst of having to rely on others,they sometimes let you down.If you need any engineering work or advice,I know a good engineer[;^)] who seems to be able to pull off tasks in amazingly short time and I also have a brother in-law who is good on the sheet metal press.These people have had a lot to do with the fast progress of late  I am on track for the 22nd,but funds are finally running thin,so that may become a hurdle.I am going to have to live without a handbrake for a while,and still have the exhaust to finish,so......I will have to see how it all goes[:p]
