Escort S1 RS Turbo Restoration
My mate's got an S1, had it for about a year now, and he's done a few things to start sorting the shell out on it, but due to the size of his garage (just big enough to fit his car into) it's a pain to work on.
And now, there's nothing in our garage, so he had a week booked off work along with my brother, and they got stuck into it yesterday, here's the progress pics of how they've gotten on yesterday and today:
The car as it came into the garage:
Begining to strip it down:
Craig in Gaffer Mode:
Darth Welder as sponsered by Motor World
And thats it so far, I'll make sure Mick gets more pics tomorrow as they are working away

Well done ! Good to see another one getting some TLC !
Your garage is a lot bigger than mine, and i did most of mine in there too.....i know how difficult is it to do it in such a small space
Big respect though for taking it on.
Have a look at My resto thread on here, and keep the pics coming !

Starting to strip my S1 down in a couple of weeks time, in need of a resto too, hopefully not as much welding needed but only time will tell..... 
Good to see another being saved... good luck lads

Cheers guys, here's the progress over the last two days:
Well, thats it for this week (well, there may be some work done on it today), but it's going back to Stuart's this weekend, but it will be back to ours to get the rest of the work done ASAP
