Default start to finish- MK4 s2 escort cabriolet

use to own 1 of these so wanted to make a rep of it as had some good times in it
so i started of with the mk3 cab,sourced some wheels & recaro seats.

i then always thought the kit would be hard to do but lucky for me i had some miliiput on the way.
so first go with the stuff & it was very impressive
s2 archs on 1 side


then was on to the bonnet


90 spec front bumper,rear bumper & spoiler,the spoiler was a pain as i was to heavy handed with it so it kept braking but got sorted in the end









i also had to change the wing edge's where the indicator's are but hard to see in the pics
once al was done i got it painted







then i had to shape the head lights to look likr the mk4 one'1,detailed all the window rubbers.once that was dont i built it back up.
here is some pics of it all finished
