I have a 90 spec series 2 turbo in white. Its pretty much a shell now, not a great deal left of it but I bought new floor pans, 3 of which have been tacked in place the 4th is there ready to go in. The slam panel wasnt the best so I cut the old 1 out and there is a brand new 1 in the car ready to go on. parts missing as follows:
recaro's
turbo bodykit
exhaust
ECU
LSD gearbox
Suspension, but this will be replaced with standard escort non turbo suspension as the car had koni adjustables and was all polybushed so it will be a rolling chassis again
Turbo and manifold
waterbottle
bumpers
fuel pump
metering unit
air filter
boost hoses
front wings as they were cut off for the new wings to be fitted but im now using them on my other escort
If you want a serious project then ive got just the project for you, it needs loads doing to put it back together. Also the roof has a very small hole in the n/s/r corner, battery tray is rotten but the dashboard is already out ready to weld a new 1 in and the n/s/r chassis needs attention. It does have a new fuel tank which isnt fitted but is in the car ready, and has all new copper brake pipes fitted, mutliTlock and a vecta alarm and immobiliser.
Ive got loads of history, MOT's, reciepts etc.
Any good to you? If so I can send you some pics of it if you like.
