Me neither

Plus if it looked like a replica S1 or 16i people would expect it to be a fast car. Whilst keeping the sleeper look it performs three functions.

*Embarrasses a lot of more expensive "exotic/ rally rep" (scooby/evo) cars.
*Attracts more interest at shows as it is certainly different and isn't 'pretending' to be an S1 or 16i.
*Understated looks keep the thieves away: why would anyone steal an old 1.3 escort when there's something else down the road that they'll have more fun in?

mk3cosworth · 04-02-2007, 08:08 PM

ye the wheels are 6j x 16" x 50et
everyone has there own take on how they would have it, this is just mine, like i said i would like to keep the steelies and they will return one day, when its back on the road this year im looking at uprating the gearbox and diffs, as i want to take it upto 600bhp next year and i think i might have to fit a full roll cage lol
a couple of pics with the whole car in priimer and the panels fitted

tessatony · 04-02-2007, 09:49 PM

awsome

GiRO · 05-02-2007, 01:42 AM

love it.. shame you gotta lose the steelies but either way its mint

NEIL A · 05-02-2007, 04:40 AM

Looking

Did you try renault or peugeot for a price for steels?
My mates a sales man for the local renault garage will try and check with him this week for sizes and a price.

mk3cosworth · 05-02-2007, 08:03 PM

i need 16 x 6j 4 stud with 45 -50et but have to go over 315 6 pots

p-38-king · 05-02-2007, 11:22 PM

looks fucking mental mate i would love to see peoples faces when you waste them from the lights lol poor corse and saxo boys hahahah nice one

massivewangers · 06-02-2007, 04:01 AM

I think this thing is just awesome

I must say, if it was mine, I'd stick ambers on the front of it and refit the interior. But of course a cage and buckets is probably the sensible option if it gets out on track a lot.

Hope you can find some steels for it, comps for the track, steels for the road.

Either way, its just a top car, and it's nice to see it being kept fresh too

Tonyt1t · 06-02-2007, 12:21 PM

been in love with this since the first pictures i ever saw of it one escort i would truely love to have sat in my garage!

749steve · 06-02-2007, 02:46 PM

CozzyKing · 10-02-2007, 06:04 PM

This car has to be the best ford that i have seen on the scene for a long time and quite possibly the most annoying to all these exotic supercar drivers.
