Morning Dave. Not that I’ve ever do something like restoring any sort of classic car 🤪 But I do admire guys like you who take on these projects and share them on KZfaq so we can enjoy them 👍🏻 It’s a lot better than watching tv especially staged programs like wheeler dealers lol 😆 Keep the great work up 👍🏻 Cheers Stevie

Another top job Dave! On the subject of your "cutting disc of death" I made exactly the same device which has proved invaluable, but you may or not be aware that you can buy a type of mandrel, (got mine off ebay, I think you got 2 for less than a tenner) which is stepped down to 1/4" or 6mm to fit standard collets, but crucially has a 10mm diameter screw with a reverse thread which allows you to mount standard cutting discs with a 10mm centre hole, and no danger of the disc unscrewing itself.

Likewise, I thought the video quality was fine. Another great repair, even if the effort was greater than building a complete repair section. Had never picked up on that spare wheel well, of course the escort had a flat boot floor and had the spare almost vertical insde the nearside rear wing, counterbalancing the fuel tank. I dont know about running out of gas, I think you are going to run out of welding if you carry on at the rate you are going at. At least you've got the Manta to keep up your welding skills when the Escort's finished. Have you followed Metod Levart's Manta "A" build on youtube, he does great work too!

Imagine that the engine and drivetrain, suspension chasis rails and floorpans are near identical, so could give some insights for your "B", not that you ever appear to be in need of help!

Sadly from 2030 on all combustion cars including classics will be banned from public streets in entire EU and Scandinavia :-( In Germany the Green Peoples Party gave order to shorten fuel supply from 2025 on by reducing petrol stations to only one state operated central gas station per city. From 2027 on in the EU certain car spare parts will be banned too....as exhaust systems, turbo chargers and even some engine and gearbox oils...California and New York will do the same from 2027 on.... So no investments should be done in oil burning cars any longer....They even created a new kind of crime here, called emissions and smoke crime....

I'm sure come that time either an alternative fuel, or even electrifying classic cars will be more affordable. Cross that bridge when we get to it, enjoy our classics now while we can.
