Wait not for tomorrow to do what can be done today, live each day for one knows not what the next day may hold.

One of my customers is busy with a replica of this car I stand under correction but I think he has the original bonnet and a few bits and pieces which he got from another forum member.

The car should be running later this year or early next year

Thanks Guys, was thinking of building a replica to race as well remembering my youth watching the Fairlane and Peter Gough in the Meissener Escort do battle at Roy Hesketh. My memory was a bit faulty as I thought from memory it was a vertical headlight 70 type Fairlane when it seems the car was a 69 with normal twin headlights in the grille ( I was 16 at the time so thats my excuse).
The 69 seems rather scarce nowadays.

Will be great to see that car! Its amazing how these bits and pieces survived so many decades, makes one wonder what really out there that people have lying around.

I think this car would complement a Capri Perana very nicely.... ;)
