Default mk4 escort s2 estate dirty derv (pic heavy)

Just thought I'd post up few pics and stuff of my misses s2 estate
We picked it up from high Wycombe in September last year with no tax&mot and had been sitting in a container for 2 years any ways it a mk4 3 door estate s2 rep came with full rst running gear 90 interior and bumper leech windows and mirrors
Any ways had to do a it's first bit of welding for the mot the siZe of a 10 p on the sill has been painted White at some stage but done a bit of a crap job
Any ways here's a few pics



Took the cvh out as was smoking like a chimney
And replaced with a 1.3 ohv for temp while the cvh gets rebuilt and a new turbo (she wants mine like fuck lol)




Started cleaning the underneath and spraying in White stoneguard






Tryed a cossie wheel on to looks sickly think
