Watching this with great interest, I would paint it but obviously resale value and blah blah blah... I'd still paint it though, fuck it!

i wouldnt want to do it in repsol livery as the reyland escort has done that look to death - granted they changed the name from Repsol to Reyland but i would want something a litte different.

Hi it's running on light blues and estimated running 370bhp although never been in rollers but it feels quick happy with power and has monster brakes to stop it so that side is done just aesthetics to change. Will update soon

Needs proper montes to pull repsol theme off, would look like usual replica without.
Sticker it too as red escos are lush nd would sell well afterwards!
Good job on the clean up though!

Escos
You have done a great job m8, keep it up. Go for the Repsol, go the whole hog, all the decals, makes it proper.
I think my old 3 door dont look to bad in rally colours,
Blue and yellow paint, other colours all vinyl!

The car is not red it's orange so that's why I thought I'd go this route if anyone else has any ideas on livery please let me know. Gonna go back through all my old fast fords for some inspiration lol

Whys it got no vin tags? It's come up really well I was tempted to have a look myself. Had it been any other colour than orange/red.
