Default escort mk3 trackday project

the car is a 1.3l, 1 owner from new and has done just 29,000 miles. i bought it off john taylor and my intension is to use it as a track car.





i was going for the rs1600i look, as i managed to buy a rs16i for £100, minus the engine and seats, but now i'm going for the touring car look with low spec bumpers minus the front spots.

the floor is in very good condition, just a little surface rust on the drivers side inner sill, and a little on the front wing, but nothing major.



plans for the engine is a 1600 cvh running twin 40's which i already have.
plus i have a lockup full of bits from the scrap 16i and some 88 spec front seats to go in.



i'll keep updating it as a go along

cheers matthew
