I HOST MY 3RD ANNUAL CLASSIC CAR GATHERING! MK2MITCH GATHERING
Welcome back all,
In this video I host my annual classic car gathering. This is the third one I've hosted and this time it was held at The Cricketers pub, with a much bigger space than previous years! I was overwhelmed by the amount of classics that turned up and the quality was second to none. The gathering was a great opportunity to put plenty of names to faces and catch up with all of you guys who watch and follow the channel.
This year we had an award 'Best In Show", that was voted by the people who attended the event. Steve won the prize with his stunning Ford 105 Anglia which has been lovingly restored and modified. Overall I really enjoyed the gathering. I plan to host another next...

I FIX THE ‘ONE’ FAULT WITH MY MK6 ESCORT VAN
Просмотров 10 тыс.2 месяца назад
Welcome back all, In this video I attempt to fix the blowers on my recently purchased Mk6 Escort van. I changed out the blower motor within an hour or so but on further inspection, the heater box inside of the van was badly damaged. This was because someone was lazy when they changed the heater matrix and decided instead of removing the dash to access it, they would cut a massive hole in the si...

    Like you, I love an old car in original condition, a lot of them at your event too, so good to see. But in addition to that, what a lovely bunch of done-up cars, those Capri’s, your Fiesta’s, mint. Loving that Ford Racing Puma and the Renault 5GT Turbo too, always loved them. Great looking show mate 👌🏻

    Some great cars there Mitch. My favourites were the Mk2 Escorts, the Series 1 RST and the Escort Cosworth. That Mk3 Fiesta on an F-plate is a rare car. I remember when they came out in ‘88. If my memory serves me right, most Fiestas sold on an F-plate were Mk2s, there weren’t many Mk3s sold on an F.
