M_C Posted November 21, 2013 Author Share Posted November 21, 2013 Pics of 3sge = Very Excite. Have asked for more pics in your thread. Link to NSFW mechanical inj BDA = shut my eyes quick (But still do the currency conversion) How did you find that on a Japanese site? Wondering if I am having too much fun dreaming about what engine to do...? Soo many choices and only one car to stick them in. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

M_C Posted November 21, 2013 Author Share Posted November 21, 2013 buy another car I left that door open didn't I. Oops I accidentally already have, but am selling it to fund more nice bits for the green one. Anyone know someone who could need a MINT Mk1 2dr Escort body shell? Been blasted and primed. Only rust was small section in A pillar that could do with repair. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Escortn Posted December 19, 2013 Share Posted December 19, 2013 Looking good mate, i love this thing. Hey do you know of any good books or sites that have standard measurements / dimensions for the essex motor? The one i bought seems to have been pulled apart previously and im interested to see if anythings bigger than standard Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
M_C Posted December 19, 2013 Author Share Posted December 19, 2013 Where are you based? Welcome to borrow my haynes manual. Has heaps of measurements in it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Escortn Posted December 19, 2013 Share Posted December 19, 2013 Cheers! I'm in Auckland, in between west and the shore. Does the Haynes manual have a decent amount of info? I've been looking at grabbing one myself, that way I can get it filthy and not feel too bad about it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
M_C Posted December 19, 2013 Author Share Posted December 19, 2013 Yeah, Haynes are great for that. Mine has all measurements and torques. I picked up one for $16 on TM. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sambo Posted June 27, 2015 Share Posted June 27, 2015 You bought COSSIE?! Very, very dusty from under a house in Devonport? Has been sitting there since I can remember, going back 20 odd years. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
M_C Posted June 27, 2015 Author Share Posted June 27, 2015 Yes, had been sitting there for 15 years. Completely original with the exception of brick phone. Surprises me how many people know the Cosworth cars. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sambo Posted June 27, 2015 Share Posted June 27, 2015 That was the car that enlightened me. The guy must have still been driving it when I was younger. I grew up around the corner and used to pine over it. Never had anything close to enough cash to make a decent offer though. Would be choice if you'd PM me what you paid for it.
