im not sure this is a restoration tbh, but its hopefully going to be my new rally car after my plans to rally a focus where scuppered by the power that be - the MSA

so we decided escort instead,
take one sorry looking ex-track type of escort, to which used to belong to Andy gallacher before he sold it and someone badly fitted a roll cage




these are the only pics i have of the car, so if anyone has any pics if youve been to andy's place ive no worries if they want to post them on here

im not sure i can even update this as im 300 miles away from the car

weve had some suspension mounts made to weld into the cars body for tall turrets and wide body as per the WRC cars
rears

fronts


i will try to add to this as a when i can get new bits/progress
the cars has been in Scotland since December now and im led to believe its now on Andy's jig for cutting up

Big Will_

I'll look forward to seeing more of this Mark

hi mate, yes as much WRC as we can re-make with a few mods and improvements along the way

RickDraper

Looking good, how was the cage fitted so badly? Also has the internal quarter paneling been removed to help reduce weight?

awesome stuff

markk

iTrader: (2)

the cage had small alignment issues which Andy wasnt happy with and neither was i, but the rear section had to be removed as the rear pick up points are totally differant on the world shells to the std items, as you will see when we progress !
