I had some good used ones but they went for some decent coin on eBay. Many sincere thanks mate appreciated!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sierraman Posted March 8, 2021 Share Posted March 8, 2021 I found Ford prohibitively expensive for some things, but then again with a lot you were left with no choice. Last of the spares I have are going to the tip at weekend. Headlamps, instrument clusters, the rare early exhaust manifolds, throttle bodies, coolant hoses, PAS pumps, new starters, alternators etc... grab them now before they go in the bin.

Slowsilver Posted March 9, 2021 Share Posted March 9, 2021 A bit too far from Buckingham for a round trip, unless you happen to find yourself heading Milton Keynes way on an "essential" journey. If not, maybe if @RustyRuss is nearer he could collect and store them for future dispersal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Split by trim level Base = 6 LX = 23 GLX = 14 Si = 4 Ghia = 8 23 of the 55 have a current MOT.

Soundwave Posted March 17, 2021 Share Posted March 17, 2021 Bastards, you can't have anything these days! Hopefully it'll bend back OK. Hope the area around the handle can be fixed too, be a shame for it to have a door replaced when it's so original. egg 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The building on the left in the streetview is the old showroom. The workshops were demolished as part of the road scheme and were past the showroom on the left. They moved here in the 60's, having been roughly where it says Q Park Charles Street. That was a 'proper' garage, one of those with a ramp inside up to the top floor, the sort you see models of. I remember my father buying his Mk I 'tina brand new from them (red - GWE792C) and it being parked on the ramp ready for collection.

egg Posted March 20, 2021 Author Share Posted March 20, 2021 Mine is 28 years old today, as it rolled off the production line in Belgium. One of the ways to date a Mondeo is the date stamp on the b pillar between the doors. You can see each side of my car was fabricated on different days!

danthecapriman Posted March 20, 2021 Share Posted March 20, 2021 When my Capri came back from the blasters and got cleaned up there was a hand written date doodled onto the top of the inner wing, looked like very faintly written with an engraving tool or something. With paint on there wasn’t (and isn’t now it’s been sprayed) any trace of it though. Pretty sure it said ??/May/74, I can’t remember exactly what the day was. I don’t think it was anything official and probably something someone on the assembly line did for some reason. egg 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sierraman Posted March 21, 2021 Share Posted March 21, 2021 Aston Martin go one better, you get the date and the name of the bloke who built the engine or upholstered the interior. I’d doubt they do that now, the Chinese or Social Media Entrepreneurs who whoever wouldn’t give a shit about how it was made by a craftsman who took pride in his art.

sierraman Posted March 23, 2021 Share Posted March 23, 2021 Found a door window seal yesterday clearing out a shelf, not sure which door it’s from, it’s a bit crusty underneath but the top is fine. Yours for the cost of postage to whoever wants it. I’ll take a pic when I’m in the house. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
