A great read, keep the updates comming.

Cyril Sneer · 14-04-2008, 11:43 PM

So this weekend I weld in the Sierra Cosworth bonnet wents in the MK3... Looks minty mint

I hope that Thursday the TÜV engeneer will come... if not I will continue to work on the doors...

What do you guys think:
Should I take out the locks (an weld the holes) in both doors and the hatch? I'm not sure what to do... Looks maybe too clean... comments welcome...

NEWTON · 15-04-2008, 12:04 AM

nice work

MARCOSWORTH · 15-04-2008, 05:54 AM

Cool Cyril

Keep the locks standard,like you've said to clean

RsDarren · 15-04-2008, 01:47 PM

Credit to you!!

Just a small update: stripped down the doors und started to level them out ...

Mr.Ford · 21-04-2008, 11:17 PM

That's an awesome project!

Dusseldorf, that's nearby were I live (Roermond)

Hope that I can see this Escort in real-life sometime!

mk3cosworth · 21-04-2008, 11:28 PM

cyrill do you come to any shows in england

Cyril Sneer · 22-04-2008, 09:03 AM

Yeah Wenny, I think I will be finished by the end of this year... and be sure... I will come over to England... I have never been on an event there and I heard so much of your freaking events... I'm quite cinfident that we will sit together and drink a glas of beer

@Mr. Ford: Roermond is really not far... And in this area we have also some cool events... so the chance to see the car life is quite high...

But... let me first finish the car... There is still so much do to...

scotty86d · 22-04-2008, 10:24 AM

just had a quick look at the thread. im extremely impressed with the way in which you have executed this. It will be a masterpiece when finished.

combi van man · 22-04-2008, 06:30 PM

i dont think the vents look wright but the rest of the car is

mariS · 22-04-2008, 07:17 PM

Cyril, lookin really good. I was rebuilding the bonnet few weeks ago too

Im sad that I havent a cossie power. Decent car with hardcore power is better choice then hardcore car with no power. So the plan to build the car to the end of the year sounds good. Im working on mine for 3,5 year and I think that Its neverending. Good luck with no troubles.

Cyril Sneer · 21-05-2008, 07:56 PM

Hi peepz...

had some other stuff to do... and it took quite alot of time till the TÜV engeneer was in my workshop.

I will continue to work on it the following days and I think I will start to weld in the floor in 1 or 2 weeks.

So just be patient

Cyril Sneer · 28-05-2008, 10:53 AM

No major updates but the gearbox arrived today

All bolts has been galvanized, all parts cleaned... looks minty mint

Can't wait to do the first test drive

mk3cosworth · 28-05-2008, 11:27 AM

looks well, makes me want to get mine put back together lol

Acidburn · 28-05-2008, 01:34 PM

fezzajsy · 28-05-2008, 09:31 PM

Cyril Sneer · 10-06-2008, 09:34 PM

Hey peepz,

sorry for being absent the last weeks. I had some other things to do.

Last weekend I started to put in the rear beam. It's tricky, but it looks good. I have to notch a little bit more so that I can move the beam 5cm upwards. Then it will fit perfectly.

Next weekend I will be on holiday for 14 days, so next update will be in 3 weeks...

Good sleep my lovely little Escort

cabrst · 11-06-2008, 07:10 PM

great progress

have a nice holiday

Fiesta_ie · 20-06-2008, 12:16 PM

just can't wait for that

NEWTON · 20-06-2008, 02:03 PM

update???

Mart.

Cyril Sneer · 06-07-2008, 09:17 PM

back again from holidays with plenty of energy

The rear axle is at it's final position. Looks pretty good.

The shell was centered on the Sierra floor pan and I started with finetuning the sheets so that both parts fits each together. The rear and the middle part of the floor pan are finished. Just the front part needs some modifications before I can start with the welding session...

So guys... next update soon to come...

Cheers

Cyril

Spammage · 07-07-2008, 02:41 PM

Cyril Sneer · 07-07-2008, 07:58 PM

Thanx "Spammage" and Wenny...

Wenny, I always have an eye on your projects...

blacky. · 07-07-2008, 08:04 PM
