Call me on my cell over the weekend (919-345-9871) or email me directly at [email protected].

I've got spare heads, rear drums, may have front spindles, will also be taking...

Bill:

BAT list was $169. How about $100, plus shipping? I have a LOT of other Fiesta parts available -- XR2 manifold, spare race header, steering wheel, wheels, etc.

Send me a list.

Rick

Bought a QH XR2 clutch for my Fiesta Mk 1 race car from BAT in Florida (based on some information from the previous owner). The previously installed AP heavy duty clutch "shelled" the friction disk...

Steven:

The leak down wasn't to address the springs. It was to make sure I had not done any damage.

I agree with your proposed fix. Unfortunately, I don't have time to try to tackle this...

Sorry to bomb the broader list (versus just the Ford Race Cars), but I need some information...

Was checking the valve lash on my LPHP (previously IT) Fiesta over the weekend. The valve spring...

FWIW, I can still (somehow!) get into my old two-layer Simpson Heat Shield suit -- dated early 1980. I've taken very good care of it over the years -- no fraying, no oil stains, etc. But it will...

I saw the same article. BUT, I was at the NC Region monthly meeting last week and was told it had been cancelled. They lost too much money on the last one (due to SARRC fees, etc.). The PDX is...

Confirmed last night. No Regional. PDX only.

Rick

Heard a rumor there was going to be a Regional in conjunction with the PDX at Rockingham in mid-September. Any one have any additional info?

Rick

Florida:

Still need this stuff? ("Looking for a spare spindle, brake drum, clutch tensioner(?), fenders and a head.")

I can probably help with all of it.

Rick

Bill:

Finally had a chance to look in my parts boxes. No crank pulleys, just several fan pulleys. Sorry.

Rick

Jeff:

FWIW, I'll be at Barber over Labor Day (as well as at RA this weekend) with the Fiesta.

Rick

Bill:

I'll take a look this weekend or early next week for sure.

Rick

Florida:

I'll try to get a picture or two and a shipping estimate. Fenders would be free...

Can you email me your email address?

Rick

Florida:

I checked with the seller of my Fiesta and he does still have the fenders. Some rust as they are off a MI car, but may be useable. He is up in MI (Detroit area). If you want them, let...

Florida:

What diameter are you looking for? I've got a few in a box.

Rick

Florida:

Let me know what Greg is not able to send you. Recognize that I am a Fiesta "newbie" (though I did have a street car back in 1980, and have run Kent motors in FF for a few years), but I...

Greg:

I just picked up a LPHP Fiesta (an ex IT-car) with a TON of spares. 2 spare motors, 2 blocks, 4 cranks, 4 gearboxes, etc., etc., you name it. Boxes and boxes of stuff. So much I had to...

Butch:

Thanks for the recap. Sorry about the log-in issue.

Rick

Butch:

Great idea! :happy204: They do the same at many vintage races. As you suggest, those that want to race can, those that want to turn a few quick laps to try improve their qualifying...

Anyone had any similar problems?

Interesting to hear about the Linea Sport suit. I've still got some Linea Sport underwear and a dual eye port balaclava from way back when I use from time to time.

My issue is my 2-layer...

Fiesta is a 1978 and does have a Quaife. Thanks for the tips though.

I've been a Club Ford driver most of my racing "career", and recently switched to a FP MGB (still being rebuilt). The Fiesta...

In the process of buying an LP HP Fiesta. Would love to be able to compare notes on set-up, areas of weakness, etc. (The car I am buying has Ford Tempo front hubs -- legal in Prod but not IT?)

I'm in Raleigh. Email address is [email protected]. Can you email me some more info?
