Hi guys, been a member on here for some time now but don’t post that often, thought I would put some pictures up for Richard (tregmat) as he still cant walk after his crash and hasn’t seen the car in months. After seeing Steve Scott’s and Martin Hadland’s escorts in action, I decided I needed a proper escort! So sold some of my cars to help fund the project.




And this is what I bought from TF Rally sport, thanks to Tim once again as the transporter broke down on the way to collect the shell so he brought it down the next week.



The shell had just been fully bead blasted and repainted but as it was for rally use the finish wasn’t the best, being fussy about bodywork I decided it would have to be redone. First got some mk6 doors as I prefer the handles, but the shell already had one (more spares!). Decided I wanted a clean look to the bodywork so welded up both door locks and boot lid locks (still not sure on tailgate but got spares being painted) then decided it was time to tackle the front wings so drilled them off and welded on my new ones



They will take some filling but got some big wheels which will hopefully do the trick



didn’t realise it took so long to upload pics so add some more later, sorry about pic quality I am shit with a camera but they do get a little better.
