        Here you go,
        That's the only picture i have with the 17inch wheels.
        But here a some pictures with the ,to smal, 15inchers





        The car is still "under construction".
        Currently the car has a standard 2.0 pinto with a five speeder.
        I already bought a 2.0 injection. Big valve's, 45 webers and a spagetti manifold are already waiting for it. Got to get me a decent camshaft and than it's, engine wise, ready (for now).
        Now that i've got the big rimms, i first want to sort out the braking. I'm planning porsche 928 disks at the front, with volvo calipers. At the back i want a sierra ABS axle. I desperatly want an independent back axle with disks.

        The problem is i bought an XR3i cabrio, wich needs a little work. And i bougt a Escort Mk1 from 1969, wich stood in a heated garage for twinty years!! So i'm a little busy at the moment

                Yep twinty years,
                It belonged to someone who died twinty years ago. His wife kept the car for memory, until she also died recently. Her children wanted to get rid the old "shed" . So i bought it for 100 pounds!!!! Hahahahaha i stil can't stop laughing. hahahaha
                It only needs, one new frontpanel and some fresh paint, and it wil be as new. Even the engine ran within ten minutes. Couldn't believe it, when it bursted into live.
