You know what time it is… it’s Friday Roundup time again! 👊
This week, we’ve finally got some good news for everyone waiting on our Zetec water manifolds — they’re ready and will be shipping out on Monday. Thanks for your patience while we’ve been getting these sorted.
Also in this week’s video, we do a quick rundown on why we think an MX5 N7 gearbox is a better choice for your classic Ford than a Type 9. If you’re planning a build, it’s well worth a watch.
Check out this week’s Friday Roundup and let us know what you think! 👇

Friday Roundup time!

This week, the Cortina’s officially been sold… but we want to know what engine YOU think should go in it. Zetec? Duratec? Hot pre-crossflow? Hot crossflow? Pinto maybe? Let us know in the comments.

We’ll also give you a walk around the fab shop and show you some of the products currently coming through.

🚗🔥 FRIDAY ROUNDUP TIME at Retro Ford! 🔥🚗

This week we go all the way back to 2006 and revisit the world’s first Duratec-powered Es**rt 👀

We look at how the build came together, the challenges at the time, and how developing that car led to some of the Retro Ford products still used today ⚙️🛠️

A great bit of Retro Ford history and insight into how real project cars shape the parts we make 🚀

🎥 If you remember either of these Es**rts from back in the day, pop a comment below and share your memories — we’d love to hear them! 👇

It’s Friday, so you all know what that means — it’s Friday Roundup time!

This week, we’re giving you a behind-the-scenes look at how some of the products here at Retro Ford are made. It’s all about fabrication in this episode, as we show you how we manufacture our Duratec sumps and seat runners.

We’ll also be showing a few new products that are now live on the website.

Hope you all have a great weekend!

Duratec sumps coming through the fab shop this week 👌

A few customers have been waiting patiently for these, so we should have them welded up and heading out very soon.

Not entirely sure what Bob’s got blasting on the radio today… but whatever it is, it seems to improve the quality of his welding 😄🔥
