Sold the wheels as they're too small for my spec. And it might have had a lot of welding but tempted to jack it all in now as a mk2 escort may replace it. No love for this car anymore, I'll just keep the bits I want for the mk2 and break the rest for spares.

Just to let anyone who was interested in this car know, it's been stripped for spares and the shell is getting cut up next week

Various personal reasons have drawn me to this but I'm starting fresh, and my new project will be up in a seperate thread.

Cheers
Nathan

It's devastating but it's taught me a lot and pieces of it will live on in my other project.

You seemed so close to finishing this as well. I followed it right from the start and admire you for taking it on.
Will look forward to the next project

I was miles from finishing this sadly. The suspension will lie on in a 3 door race car anyway. Next project is up... But it's a non ford. (Metro GTa)
