Mmmm, something smallish... the 140 mph looks ambitious!! Pure guess but I'll go for something Italian...dunno what tho'

Look vaguely familiar, Cortina Mk2?

I was thinking along Ford lines, what about Escort mk1 "mexico"?

mickey taker · Post by **mickey taker** » 25 Oct 2007

I agree with the ford idea ,deffo not mk2 cortina they had any extre dials set in the centre or on top of the dash depending on year

maybe mk 1 though or early capri possibly

Post by **Vanny** » 25 Oct 2007

it has a ford sticker on the wiring loom, so smiffy is winning so far!

How the fuck does that work? Bandit said it was something Italian and I suggested a Mk2 Cortina. Smiffy, who posted 5 fucking hours AFTER me, suggests it's Mk1 Escort and you say he's closest because it's a Ford. Who the fuck do you think made the Mk2 'tina, Aston Fucking Martin perhaps?

Anyway you cheating scouse bastard I now believe they are from a Mk1 Capri, possibly the early pre-facelift one which had Mk1 escort rear lights. What do i win if I'm right?

Post by **Vanny** » 25 Oct 2007

hell i just assumed the cortina was some vauxhall crap and ignored it

fine then you big child, you and smiffy are equally close, but no one wins anything until i see pictures to match!!

Escort Mk1 six clockers, so Smiffy was correct. However he's not about right now so can I claim the prize?

The point was, me old china, that Vanny said you were nearest because you mentioned a Ford whereas I had indeed suggested a Ford before you did. For your foul and abusive message I herby give you a red card*.

*Rescinded on appeal because you've been dahn sarf so you're excused. Just this once.

I was never sure it was, because it's been more than 20 years since I last saw a mk1 high spec dash. They usually just had the 2 big dials.

Some of you older gents may know, was it just the mexico, or did the 1300E also have this dash?

I think the 1300E had the same dash..

Either way, I should have won, cos I'd have known that, I just wasn't on line at the time..

mickey taker · Post by **mickey taker** » 26 Oct 2007

you have to be in it to win it Doc

the E possibly had the six pack as opposed to me who has a Keg
but it would have been covered in sticky back wood effect plastic if I remember correctly

Ahhh, so, rather than asking the lovely Latvian lady out on a date, I should just get up to my nuts in guts, then I'll win it right?
