Can I just thank all involved for the Quick60, it was really entertaining and seeing the times get quicker and quicker throughout the day was excellent.
Hope it comes back next year and that we have good weather for it!

I'm hopeless at quoting single pictures, but that Mk3 Fiesta SI is really taking me back to being 17!

The wheels are worth at least £300, BBS wheels and look great on Fabia vRS'.

Early 6 cylinder one? I would get it as clean as you can because it won't be long until these start going up in price exactly the same way E36s have. Most of them have been turned into peoples first drift cars and destroyed.

Lovely looking Cortina. Looks like a Carousel or Crusader thats had the bottom painted the same as the top. My Carousel was that colour.

I can definitely recommend Hobbyweld 5. I got a bottle. Way better than the disposable bottles. Better pressure and last.
Looking forward to seeing this progress.

The 1st Volvo S40s are 4x114.3, they came with some nice 16" BBS wheels. Might be worth hunting out some of them. Can't imagine them being massively expensive.

UpBuild is an enjoyable watch. Replacing or modifying pretty much every panel on a Mk3 Mini to turn it into a Mk1. Tom

Would be better with a less saggy bumper.

Would be interested to know the diameter of the front struts. I wouldn't be surprised if it was the same or very close to Mk2 Focus.

Its not a "retro" but I'm running NB MX5 wheels on my Corolla, to clear the big front brakes. This looks interesting! What mods have been done? Tom

i think the non g40 ones have integral carriers Only early ones, the rest have separate carriers. 256mm Vauxhall Brakes are a cheap option as the Audi carriers to run 256mm mk2 Golf Calipers are getting thin on the ground.

Quite possibly the most awkward out of proportion car I have seen in a long time. Love it. P. It's like they had a 3 dr Escort but wanted a car as long as a Granada without altering the wheelbase!
