Default Mk4 Escort.

Dad told me it was a mk3 originally, lieing bastard

But none the less, here it is, the door needs repairing from a ding with something, the rear arch looks like its caught it too, the boot could do with tidying up too because of some little chips near the lock. But other than that, well, I'll let the pictures do the talking















I'll get some more pictures up when I get it home and polish the knackers of it

Nice looking project mate! whats the plans for it? if you know anyone with a lift pump and swirl pot you could use that but the rst tank is the easiest option leave it as it is with some wide steel wheels and a turbo engine oh and a roofrack lol

I was actually thinking exactly that, Im going to run it as it is for the time being until I get everything for the conversion, soon as I get it home I'll polish it within an inch of its life and get some coilovers ordered up, might stick springs on for the time being.
But yeah, wide steels and roof rack + 190-200bhp rst lump = great fun
