Hello!
Another Member of Germany's Fomoco Wrecking Crew will enter the Retro Rides Forum!
My name is Thorsten and i'am living near Kassel in Germany.
I work at a Volkswagen/Audi/Seat Garage in Baunatal near the VOLKSWAGENWERK-Kassel.It sucks!All this new plastic Cars!
Everyday more electronic.....it never stops!
So,i like only old cars..........especially old Ford`s!At the moment i restore a 1972 2 Door Ford Escort 1100l.Much work,but i love it.
Most of all i like Performance in the old stuff......every car get a bigger Engine!
(Except my 87' Fiesta Diesel Wintercar)
The Escort get's a RS2000 Engine!
So denn Thorsten

about bl**dy time too!! It´s his fault my garage/carport/drive are full of Fords. Trouble is Thorstens´computer is clockwork, nearly as old as his cars and definately as slow  So i´ll give him a hand with some piccys until his catches up!! Fantastic Showwinning 1963 taunus transit 2.8  This one´s even better..1965 17M 2.8  Loud, low, Autobahneater!!! 1973 Ford Taunus (Cortina MKIII) 2.8 of coarse!  And as if that wasn´t enough there´s a MKI Escort on its way...  |

Is it legal to marry a car? 'Cos I think I'm in love...  ;D |
| |
... the only injury I sustained was a bumped head when I let the seatbelt of without realizing the car was upside down  and that's not really the car's fault. |

The 17m and the taunus are stunning. How expensive are the 17m's over there?

Well spotted, that´s Thorstens ex- P6 12M and it now belongs to Miguel in Hamburg.
To complete the set though there are still a few missing, but we´re getting here slowly!

Yep, they were built the same time as Cortina MKI/MKII but are a bit bigger. The P5´s as they are known over here can be cheap and chearfull or bloody expensive depending on condition and engine, same as any car really. A nasty V4 rotbox would set you back a couple of hundred quid where as Thorstens, never been welded, better than new, 2.8 modded etc is not for sale and never will be. Pricewise here´s a few tempters... autoscout24.de/Details.aspx?id=bax1jvqvmzxmautoscout24.de/Details.aspx?id=vk24kkufzimqautoscout24.de/Details.aspx?id=vuejdcxdswax |
