    MK1 and newbie

    Hey everyone.

    Just a hello to everyone, and an intro.

    Basically i am very in Ford Escorts, spesh the Mk1.

    I am looking to go and get one - in bad shape and do it up as a hobby project.

    I have found 2 for sale, so going to have a look next weekend, and hopefully buy one, when i get my pay packet through.

    Basically, i do not know much about doing cars up, and what to do, where to start. But i do have a good guy in the repairs side of things, so can get some advice, but also would like to get some help form you guys, and see what u would recommend.

    I know what i want form it, and what i want the finished sytle to be, just getting it there!



    Does anyone know of any good ford places in Bromley / london area?

    Thanks and catch up with you soon!
