Got someone looking for an OEM header tank - 1987 whaletail jobbie.

that one doesn't look like a cosworth one to me dave.
it might be sierra, but it doesn't look like it has the correct turbo cooling outlet at the top.

i could be wrong though

I upset a good friend when she first got her escort cossie, doing a "healthy" speed on the A12 and she said "what do you think then?"

"Not bad for a cut & shut sierra" Was not the reply she wanted! Still talks to me though

parts supply drove my mate mad with his 3 door. it was the genuine 'kaliber press car' but he just couldnt get genuine new parts!

Ford just stop making part after i think 6 years. So if you damaged say a door trim onb your 55 pate mondeo, you cant rock into a dealers parts dept and order a new one!

How lucky we are!

Come on, its a FORD- Fix Or Repair Daily ......They could make a mint if they continued making parts, probably make more from parts than car sales, lol
