finally decided to do a thread on the escort! i know its not cossied but hey.

Bought her for £50 from a lady in my local town, had had since new.
The car had done 58k when i bought her and got given complete service history down to the original purchase order and receipt for the car.

She looked like this when i got her:
Fairly tidy a few scabbie bits but nothing major.


Handling like a boat, she needed slamming,
So a trip to rally design was needed.
A single box exhaust, -180lb springs and some lowering blocks improved it slightly,


After blowing the original 58k engine up, i decided to put in a 1700 crossflow, and have some body work done too!










Custom front bumpers


Due to lack of money and other issues, the mk2 got neglected for a while

However,
Last night was spent servicing the twin DHLA 40's that are going on, along with:
Bilstein Coilovers
Capri 2lt rad
Anti dive kit
Full set of poly bushes
4 point harnesses
Halogen lights

will all arrive on monday, so by next weekend the car will be completely different to drive!

Next cosmetic change, new wheels

will update next week!
