RE: It's a ford - Piggy - 05-09-2013

RE: It's a ford - 1616six - 05-09-2013

Crying out for cosworth engine!

Nice motor.

RE: It's a ford - Pete - 05-09-2013

Yes! Mk3's and 4's have gained a good following now without the daft prices of the Mk1's and 2's. Tidy it up, keep on top of the rust and you can't loose. One of my favorate old Fords happens to be a mk3, the RS1600i

Same here but the mk3 is better all around, looks wise

RE: It's a ford - karl1989 - 06-09-2013

My mate has the xr3i but I prefer the xr3. Plans sort the ph1 get it on the road ASAP and put escort in garage and just use it for weekends and shows. Don't want it as a daily

RE: It's a ford - karl1989 - 08-09-2013

Lancaster classic car insurance fully comp £263 that will do Smile

RE: It's a ford - karl1989 - 08-09-2013

Re: It's a ford - THE_Liam - 08-09-2013

Cheers for the replies. Finding bits that need welding slowly but will be sorted. Today was cylinders and shoes. Will do other side when weather makes its mind up

   
   
   

And a pic from yesterday

   

RE: It's a ford - karl1989 - 22-09-2013

So weather was nice Today so thoughT I'd sort the passenger rear brakes ouT. Was greeted with this. Sure something's melted as the rubber on cylinder had half gone

RE: It's a ford - Jimbo - 22-09-2013

Good work I hate building up brake shoes
Defo needed doing they were shagged

RE: It's a ford - daddyfixit - 22-09-2013

looking at the old shoes/cylinder, I can see the linings detached and off the shoe, the brake fluid from the leaking cylinder has attacked the brake linings---turning them to sludge..............
would also suggest you re-pack the wheel bearings as the grease looks like its seen better days ??

not many mk 3's about, so well done.

Re: It's a ford - THE_Liam - 22-09-2013

Put this on the rollers!

RE: It's a ford - PUGNUT_XS - 23-09-2013

I thought they had all turned to rust. I had a sunburst red XR3 back in the day, with the good ol peco bb4. Talk about nostalgic.
