Getting Oily With Your Classic Ford Made Easy
Getting technical with the best in the business, here's all you need.

A Previous Life
Along with four other sister cars, the original LVX 942J was built at Boreham as a brand-new Escort Twin Cam, for Joginder Singh to drive in the 1971 East African Safari. Joginder finished 16th, after which the car remained in Kenya for him to drive in local events. At the end of the season, this Twin Cam returned to the UK where, because of its very tatty bodyshell, and an obsolete type of Lotus-Ford eight-valve engine, it was scrapped. Officially therefore, Roger Claik's famous Esso Blue was...

Person Of The Year
This year we're dedicating the award to Milton's Kevin Wood who passed away in April after a long illness.

An oracle of wisdom, he was always happy to pass on what he'd leamt, whether you were a customer or not, particularly if there was...
