Default Finally finished N/A Mk1 Escort added feature pics
Thought Id post a couple of pics of my finished mk1 escort. Owned for coming on 6 years and it finally had a good solid 2months last year to complete its rebuild. A couple of small alternator issues to sort out then its all ready for this years events.

Its also the banner picture on the turbosport site and a link to the resto if anyone wishes to see.

I think old skool cars should have old skool noise carbs and a straight cut box in my opinion. Also I nearly bought my dads group 4 mk2 which has a 355bhp cossie turbo engine in it until it violently stepped out on me!
