The 72 custom bay called hank

Looking good Carlos........I have got the tower style breather box but I think I need to check/change my pipes......

I was looking at the tower ones are they the ones that go on the oil filler or no

Cheers impy got a couple more jobs to do like

Paint the engine bay
paint the hole underside
carpet and board the roof
carpet all round the seats
get some proper cushions made up for the bed
put new clutch in

Should keep me busy over the winter as well as get another mini on the road and sold

Yeah, mine is on the oil filler but I was thinking about changing it over to one like yours.....

Mines from coolair as you said about £30, it was £27 and they do a cb performance one for £38 i think

Looking good Carlos
What's connected into the breather? Both rocker covers & breather off the oil filler?

Did you get the fuel pump problems sorted? What was it in the end? diaphram?

Yes mate i will be here

Blimey bud. I've only ever heard good comments on your van. Is it comment sfrom peeps on Vzi or on here? If I've evr made a comment (cant think that I would have though) then I apologise, would hate to see you leave dubs after so long. But then I kinda understand why, they are an addiction and an utter stress/money pit.

To be honest bud im just not happy had enough of the unreliabilty of it all and many other things im just ready for a standard car to drive and give the lot up we will see nothing is def i might be fine tomorrow

dagenham dustbin Escorts are great dailys.

Dude. Do what you want to your van, after all it is your van........
I know I have said in the past about the window but it was just a suggestion and if I caused any offence I apologise.
As has been said on other posts on here nobody has to conform to anything. As I have said in the past I 'dig' the old school Cal-Look, BUT, it doesn't mean I don't like or appreciate other peoples vehicles whatever genre they do or don't belong to......
Rise above it Dude.....

The only dagenham dustbin i will ever own again mate is mk1/2 mk3 but only xr3/3i or rs1600i the rest is dog poo no ofence as the mk5/6 is comfy grandad motors

That was bloody scoops editing my post . It actually read 'escorts make great daily cars'.....

..... I was outside at 8.30 tonight cleaning it, in the dark, in the cold..... ahhh, bless the old girl.....

the window is a reversable thing mate and no one on here pushed me to do it i just wish i hadnt but its the scene its self thats P*$$ me of theres to much clicky crap going on

And its only going to get worse bud, the whole scene is dissappearing up its own arse. Its only clubs like this that are really keeping the 'real' scene going for me.

The mk5 escort scene is loadsa fun too. Me, cecil, bernard and nigel all meet up at B&Q (Thursdays is OAP day) and chat about our blankets, picninc boxes, and our heated rear windows, and then we go for a 'cruise' to Morrisoons cafe for a cup of nice tea and a scone.... it rocks!

It'll be a shame if you sell up dude...
