BudSlater Posted April 17, 2014 Share Posted April 17, 2014 Just wanted to say hi, I put a deposit down on a 2001 wide body pinto'd car tonight from toy box. Very pleased with it, sounds awesome, allegedly 150hp with head work and cam. It'll be summer fun and some track work, maybe even an s2000 engine conversion over winter! Currently driving a Boxster S and the website is just a beast, can't wait to get out for some meets! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

John Dolan - Wirral & North Wales AO Posted April 18, 2014 Share Posted April 18, 2014 Car looks great. I've had a few Pinto engined Escorts and they are bomb proof, although a tad heavy. It's the right colour too, same as mine :-) The Wirral and North Wales area is organised by Mark Redpath and we have an active summer planned. In May we have the Y Ddraig Goch, a 3 day tour around Wales (see the posts on the Events section of the Boardroom), and in September we're going to the Isle of Man for 4 days. We have run outs most Sundays when the weather allows, plus trips to shows etc. Some of the lads do trackdays, Oulton Park and Ty Croes are favourite. When are you getting the car? I'm in Ellesmere Port so drop in when you're passing. John. 07921 164310. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BudSlater Posted June 7, 2014 Author Share Posted June 7, 2014 So I've started a "build" thread, which given that it's bought not built, will be a documentation of its evolution http://sigainey.tumblr.com/ More to come very shortly! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
