Hello dear comanions.
I thought i should have to post a topic of my car.
It's 1990 hatch Escort, 1,6 l 66 kw petrol engine.
I am restaurating it. It will be few day's to get it resprayed or painted as you wish.
So here are my car pictures.
When i got it it was like that..

Then i put my RS steering wheel from my estate Sierra in...

Finally i started to restore it form the bottom...

Then i started some bodywork...

And here i am today

Yesterday's result

For a month ago i started to replace front brake discs lowering spring etc. and took out the engine.

Here some pics of lowering spring and fully painted car

then the engine out

hopefully i'll get more pics cause progress is good. i have put the engine toether again and replaced worn bits. so in few days i would like to get engine under the bonnet and do the start up.
