The engine bay ( spent hours & ££££'s in here ) And finally one parting shot . . I really really really miss this old barge, but 16 to the gallon just isnt viable anymore Thanks a lot fuel duty

[robbo9006]

Fooking hell thats nice.
Shame about the fuel.
lpg conversion would have been cool.

Looking nice m8. Yep it is a shame about the fuel, but i suppose while us brits keep on paying the price the goverment will continue to give us a good shafting ( dont get me going on that ) . What engine is in your scorp ? I really miss the mid range punch of the cossie & have yet to drive another V6 of similar cc that has that amount of torque . I sold it to a guy from the Scorpio site so at least it will continue to be looked after. You never know, one day Optimax might come down to 50p per litre & i'll buy another & supercharge it....then again pigs might fly . try & keep hold of your scorp m8. wont be long before they are worth a bit of money. Cheers... Craig

41 trophies !!! !!! You have had a busy year . Last time i saw you was at Sandwell All seems like ages ago now. Sadly i had to let my cossie go so havent done anymore shows this year. I replaced it with a 2.0ltr mk2 Mondeo at the end of July. Havent really done much to the mondy yet. Just threw on some cougar rims & blue side repeaters. Got a pair of mild road cams going in tomorrow & an induction kit on it,s way after xmas ( no prizes for guessing what the kids are getting me for xmas then ) As im sure you remember i have been battling the big C, but am happy to report im on the mend big time . so will be modding hard next year. Cant bloody wait Roll on show season 2011 . Cheers buddy... Craig

A few pics of mine

Tuck away now for winter, and waiting for some more extensive modding, hopefully finishing the full body kit and may even get the 4.0l built!!!

turbo diesel, its a battered old war horse, was mechanically shot but now been put right, mainly with a lot of spare cossie bits, still deciding what colour to paint it, but due to lack of space i keep this one at work, you can just see the escort behind it too!

[craig w]

A battered old war horse eh !!!!! I wonder which crook sold you that

[robbo9006]

Yeah they aint the prettiest of cars but your right there is something about them, maybe because it was the last of the BIG fords, the last ford to had solely RWD and in a way the last true ford cossie. If ford hadnt of bought jag we would still have a scorpio or what ever it would be called, but as they then had the S type and Xj's there wasnt any point making a big saloon with an oval on it they had 2 with a far better name and image
