tomsy Posted June 28, 2013 Author Share Posted June 28, 2013 where to? hirwaun?No bongo a place called acw motorsports they prepare rally cars in williamstown a guy who works there does it. ditch the rear drums!Cant justify the expense and hastle of converting to discs on the rear as the cars not gonna be a track car, although i will agree a set of discs on the back of an escort does make it stand out from the norm.

tomsy Posted June 29, 2013 Author Share Posted June 29, 2013 cool good to know.1 mile up the road from me. just looked at the site,shows them in bristol.Pretty sure the name is acw motorsports but a lad i work with his best mate owns the company, their unit is on the other side of the road to rhondda tiles in williamstown well worth a visit just to have a peek at some of the cars they prepare plenty of mk2 escorts.

tomsy Posted June 30, 2013 Author Share Posted June 30, 2013 A few little cosmetic things done today in pursuit of getting the car looking as smart as i can for fordfair first off got my chrome interior handles fitted. http://www.evo-host.co.uk/getimg/31284.jpg Stainless sill protectors. http://www.evo-host.co.uk/getimg/31285.jpg Copied scottybo with this. http://www.evo-host.co.uk/getimg/31286.jpg But has he got one on the rear. http://www.evo-host.co.uk/getimg/31287.jpg And when your all done and all you've got to keep your baby in is a galvanised tin shack of a garage a little extra protection doesn't hurt. Im sure someone started a thread on here show us your garage that this pic could go on to give people a laugh. http://www.evo-host.co.uk/getimg/31288.jpg Next on the agenda before fordfair is the small matter of a new MOT runs out week before very inconvenient and some powder coating. tomsy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
