That is hot. 

I absolutely love a tuned old Ford. They were so restricted out of the factory, it's just kinder to let them breathe a bit.

Banded steels. A bit marmite, but I reckon they're as cool as penguin's piss.

Yup. Been going on since the 1960s I believe. Mk1 Escorts wear them well.

I want to like that, but the wheels/tyres are pretty shit and those floor mats are actually criminally offensive.

This class looking thing might make a decent recovery truck, but the bed type tells me it's probably been hauling heavy plant about. Still, it's only a grand.

Yeah, I'm aware of the process of banding - my old mk2 Golf VR6 conversion had a set fitted.

I never knew the sixties Fords were just reversed standard rims though. Every day's a school day.
