    Panko's Mk1 Escort (Round 2)

    I had a really productive day on the escort front started out this morning with 2 of the wheels still needing final sand and polish, before being masked up for paint. I got the first one done then got called into work to fix up some issues. so they took an hour and a half out of my sunday second one done. now for masking take 2. the remaining 3 wheels masked up, and in primer. 3 coats of etch primer. while i was "waiting for paint to dry" i went and converted the bigger (32/36) carby from water choke to manual choke ready to go onto the car in the coming days. I knocked off about 6:30pm tonight, and by then I had all the painting done on the wheels we had the best painting weather in melbourne today, warm, and a nice breeze to flash dry the paint, which meant each coat was drying in under 5 minutes Tomorrow before i leave for work at midday, I will be spraying on the clear coat. so by tuesday morning, i can take the masking tape off and have my wheels finished at last. Tyres will be fitted sometime later this week, and by the weekend with any luck, the wheels will be on the car im so excited

    Developing an issue with Starting

    Flexplate was like new, gear in excellent condition. I should really recheck the mounting bolts i guess. Might pull the starter out and check everything this weekend as its gicing me the shits.

    Thinking of buying 98 xh ticford

    Pros: Having people tell you how unique and different it is going down that route. More power than N/A Cons: parasitic losses of a blower,boost rises with revs, it costs way more than the car is worth, limited resale market and therefore value if you ever change your mind, can't change boost level easily, throwing belts, less power and peak torque than a correctly sized turbo. There's way more runs on the board with turbocharging Ford 6's in both drag racing and street cars. Ultimately it's your money, different people want different things for different reasons.
