can get a escos for all the money and effort you will put into that

at the end of the day it will be an expecive replica, you will have alot of trouble selling it if you ever want to and wont get good money unless you break all your hard work and graft.

Also the mk5 escort is not the same length as a genuine EsCos, you can pic a EsCos up from 8k, or try and find a smashed up one and repair it,

or just buy a rolling shell and do it pay as you go style, as at the end of the day, it will never be a proper cosworth does not matter if you put full escos gear in it, its still a replica.
