Okay think its about time I showed you my pride and joy, this is my Escort Estate my first ever car and project .
Done lots of restoration to the old girl when I got it and that was 8 years ago ive basically just got it the way I want it.
But you probably know yourself that a car is never finished lol.
Pics.
This was last year going to Classic Ford

After cracking my manifold due to being so low and the shit roads around my area I went for the 15's, best thing I ever done it rides great now.





Okay so your probably thinking what engine has it got ??, well its a pinto that took me about four years to build geting the parts etc.
Full Cosworth bottom end with EFI system and mf2 module for the extra injectors at 10psi. now has a t34 turbotechnics.
It was a pig to setup but nearly the way I want it lol.


Hope you like it, I can't tell you how many hours poured into this car lol. thanks for looking.

 

i take my hat of to you mate thats one bloody stunning escort you have

 

Looks great, the estate looks a lot better with them 15s

 

credit where credit is due spot on that is

 

Does indeedy look very very nice, nice colour as well, I met a man from essex last year who has a mk1 estate mexico, very rare these are he said, mot'd road legal ready to run, but his is a trailer queen.
Much respect as a first car this is exceptionally well done.

Love it, really do.

 

Looks stunning, nice to see some Mk2 estates done up and hopefully more will be featured in RF.

 

what a beautyyy,, im going that way engine wise.. pinto turbo

 

Thanks for all the feedback guys glad you like.

 

awesome looking mk2 estate dude!!

did you have to do much to make the 15's fit in the wheel archs? and how much is your lowered by?
great work though, well done!

 

Because I had it setup on 13's I had to raise the back up a little, also got the front and rear arch lips tucked in as they started to rub.

Have done loads more work to this since those pictures, running cossie management stage 2. just rebuilding head etc.
will post some pics up.

 

 

oooooooooooooh yeah

That is awesome!!!!

Man how refreshing it is to see an estate, esp one as cool as that, awesome motor op

 

Looks fantastic on the new rims! Great work mate.

What rims are they mate, car looks sweet btw can beat good old mk1/2 estates

 

Cheers falla they are revolution rfx 15's

 

Stunning mate :too:

 

Cool car mate, very nice

 

Had the head checked whilst it was apart, turns out I needed it skimmed.
Removed valves and replaced stem seals, exhaust valves pitted bad on seats.
Fitted new valves and put all back together.
Was a pig to setup, had troubles with the chip in ecu. Idles about right, only on low psi for now.
Just need road tax

 

Love the look of that!

 

oh..............very nice indeed.

Do like the Revs & tinted rears - a great looking and rare motor these days.

 

Still looking good I see? Great!

 

Im lovin this.I like the newer wheels.They look miles better than the other ones.

 

Thanks guys, fitted a different fuel regulator and it has helped. went for a run saturday. had issues with spark plugs as they cant handle the heat lol. but getting the way it should be now lol. feels great to be back in an old Escort
