Great footage of the show. Love the cup holders. Are you using the Ford ecu or running your own setups?remember to include in your loom. Personally I’d use the escort loom as a pattern & make your own
Hi Mick, to start with I'm using twin weber carbs and a late orion ignition module for spark, likely end up on throttle bodies
Wow Dave some of those cars at the show were absolutely magnificent! ( especially yours of course 😁) thank you for sharing.
Back in the day of preparing clubman Escorts we used 7 core cable to the rear of the car. Not 'factory' but it did the trick. Idea may be of some use to you.
From where did you get the files for the 3D printed parts from? I will have to make something similar to my Duratec 2.5L for a Lotus 7 style car, though I have more room than you.
I used TinkerCad to model them myself, really easy to use.
As soon as Davies garage videos pop up it got to be a like before watching because you know it’s going to be educational
Yes, the first thing I do is click the like button, always a good video.
Thank you, that's very kind 😊
You could use a ball bearing placed over the hole and hammer it (to "find" those holes).
That's a good idea
Great work Dave 👏
Dave, do you have cad drawings for the clutch and brake pedal bushes, love the channel by the way, I’m in the process of rebuilding a mk1 Capri, lots of rust and missing parts, Cheers Steve
Hi Steve, I don't sorry, I'm using a bias pedal box, not sure whether it's the same?
lovely
Great video Dave as always. Couple of questions ☺ Can you print out one of them backing plates if I cover the cost and postage? Does the MX5 gearbox use a cable operation to run the speedo?
Hi David, Yes, I can do that, message Mrs Dave on Instagram @clare_larcombe_avon_uk and she will give you my contact number. 😉
The mx5 box does use cable speedo, so I'm thinking of getting speedy cables to make me a cable to suit.
Nice work Dave👍👍
Those plastics are in good nick for their age. I had loads of scratches on mine and rubbed them using toothpaste and a bunch of tissues, look like new now.
Cardboard tubes for the clocks lights and never caused a problem they can stuff battery car's and that dick Khan
Great job dave
Hi Dave, love your work. I just built an adapter plate to connect my Zetec 2.0 to a MX5 NC 6-speed Automatic transmission. Your adapter plate videos were a great help. Thanks
Cool, thanks 😊
Well done dave doing it a bit at time you soon have it' all sorted 👍
😊😊
Nice clocks , well done
Thanks 👍
Very informative Dave. Whilst i do possess mechanical knowledge of cars in general, i have never once thought about servicing or modifying the clocks...too scared that i might have messed up! This would've been useful to know about, when i modified a Series 3 Land Rover, that had a Rangie 3.5 litre V8 engine, Rangie 3.7 to 1 ratio differentials and 31 inch 11.50 tyres fitted. The speedometer was out by 33%! I had no idea how to correct that then....so i just remarked the speedo face to roughly where the correct speeds were! I could've just done this instead!
😊😊
on my RRC, i am converting everything to µc-controlled stepper motors, with electronic odometer. with that thing you can adjust speedo/odo to your wheel size easily., without retouching the face.
@@ljuberzy Cool. Not sure if that was available 2o years ago, when i built my old Landy tho! But a nice modern tech way to fix issues that like. 👍
Dave can you set the mileage to your own car’s history?
I could do
Great video, Dave greatly enjoyed it.
Well done Dave another great video
Good work mate bet that saved you some money. Another job done
A fortune mate
Most informative Dave, just like an episode of the Repair Shop 👏
Ah thanks 😊 I love that
A true tutorial vid on how to DIY it yourself, seats look great, plenty of space for a posh cup holder and storage bins
Glad you liked it!
Another cracking job there Dave. You make it look so easy. Some of the Capris had not a dissimilar rear seat. Maybe a bit late now but I would have considered running some swages (I think that's the right term ) across the flat panels for rigidity and preventing potential drumming.
Many thanks Dave.
Hi Dylan, I'm struggling to get an email setup. You can DM Mrs Dave on her Avon Instagram account @clare_larcombe_avon_uk
Hi Dave I’ve sent you a message on instagram about buying one of the adapters for the stalk of you .many thanks.
Hi Dylan, I've come off Instagram, I'm setting up an email for the channel, and I'll get back to you.
Hi Dave, you could spay some expanding foam between the seat and the metal sheeting to fill the gap, and give it more support. Just an idea, great video as always 👍
Good idea 😊
You can make a cup holder of the side pockets for the back sets
That's what I'm thinking, too Kev
Fitted well in the car, Dave
simple and effective, nice result
Fantastic work again dave love it👌👌
The seats are looking great
Looking good fits like a glove. The puzzle worked out great. Going to look good all carpeted and lined out 👍
Looks great Dave back seat Looks like it was made for an Escort. Cheers.
Super job Dave looks like they were supposed to be there to me 👌 👍
You made that job look really easy aswell, and I'm sure it not just Blue Peter editing!
Nice job, they fit in there really well, come nice and close to the wheel well without overlapping. Looking forward to the infill cubby holes etc. I've just realised I've still got a Lucas Mk1 Escort headlight hanging up in my garage that's been there years, I used to use it as a lamp by connecting it to an old car battery as I have no power in my garage. Obviously you can get much better battery lighting now so it's been a long time since I used it like that. There used to be 2 but one got dropped and the glass broken a long time ago.
I can’t wait for you to finish MY car 😝 again another good video fella
Dave are you crazy welding your seat pan on your foam seats you could have ruined them, do you have any holes now.
They didn't even mark up amazingly
@@DavesGarageuk phew
Dave just wondering if you're planning on fitting the Corsa c electric power steering?
I am thinking about it
Great job Dave, looks like they were made for the car 👍
They look great Dave, did a mate already have those or (did you just go hunting for something the right width?)
Just a happy coincidence as it happens, I bought the front seats, and the seller said I could have the rears for free if I wanted them. And thet fit a treat. Happy Days 😊
Well done Dave another great video and another job ticked off the list
Nice job from the crazy welding Welshman
🤣
pays out good money for sierra box and mounts you dont really need but goes and buys empty superglue off ebay....crazy
Not the first time I've been called crazy 🤣
I think you should invest in a NutSert kit. Good video, Welsh version of Fab Rats
@@Bigtbuilder I've got one, I'm not a fan of the way the nuts stand a bit proud.
Another interesting video, nice and long too. Lots of pride in bits that won’t be seen will make this a lovely car.
hi good progress on the mk1,, the hat makes you 10 years younger ,👊👊🍻🍻
🤣
Hey Dave!!! Well hello my friend. Very nicely done on the seats. Where do you get your design from. I like the break. Do you have a video on your hole puch, i need to make one of those. That worked great. Be well sir.
The hole punch is something I actually bought with money 😊
@@DavesGarageuk oh wow.i will have to look for something like it.
@@jntcustomcars www.ebay.co.uk/itm/143333157222?mkcid=16&mkevt=1&mkrid=711-127632-2357-0&ssspo=J4A9zjIQQnq&sssrc=4429486&ssuid=v5ZLVAlZQYe&var=&widget_ver=artemis&media=COPY try this
@DavesGarageuk thank you sir I will ask my son to grab one. He is east of London.
Another great job Dave. You really excel at challenges like this, and the seats look fantastic.
Its always the hidden work that takes so long to do and then it goes unnoticed. I'm looking forward to getting stuck into my MK1, but I have a VW to finish first!
