Race Retro

Post by stylussprinter »

Some of us are off to Stoneliegh on the 25th Feb for the RACERETRO show . Not a Kit show , I know , but more interesting if you're in to Motorsport . It'll be my first outing ' car ' linked in 2011
I just love the Stylus but she keeps swallowing £££ !

Had a really good day at the show and bought a new gearbox mount I spied in a box of bits , while there. I've been thinking mine is a bit soft when underneath greasing the prop and generally looking for trouble . It was £14 and marked as Cortina :roll: When Pete supplied it as a build item , I seem to remember it was marked as from an Escort Ghia :?: Anyway now I know :wink:

Yep , now you say it , I remember the same . Probably because they were £20 odd and not the £14 I paid yesterday ten years later :roll:
