Default Ca18et RWD Mk4 escort

Hi guys this is my project. Ive been following a few on here and really wanted to do one of my own.

I have been driving the car for about 6 months and was going to sell it but when i didnt make much money on e-gay i thought well why not have a go.

so here we go it wont be real quick progress but im hoping to have it finished within 12 months.

The plan is to convert it rwd with sierra running gear and then use a Ca18det from a nissan 200sx so we will see what happens.

Its going to look totally standard and im not even going to paint it.Standard even down to the original bonus seats. LOL.

Here are some pics of what i have done so far.
This is a pic of the car as i bought it
