Default Escort Mk3 daily rust bucket

My Mk1 Orion 1.8 Zetec had broken its IB5 box so that got replaced with a Mk3 XR3 short ratio box. Started making noises after 2 months so now I'm pretty much done with it. MOT is expired now and will get new MOT when I finish the turbo conversion. Picked up a Mk3 RS Turbo gearbox last week but still need plenty more parts.

For the meanwhile, I bought this rust bucket with almost a year MOT. The 1.1 engine runs fine and does 40 miles per gallon on the highway (5 speed gearbox)

I'll just dump the pics from when I got it till how it is now. Anyone saying it can be saved, make me an offer to buy it so you can restore it yourself.


How I got it:
