Default Mk1 Escort

Here i have my mk1 escort for sale,

-1968 tax exempt 2 door
-1.6 crossflow engine with the stronger 711 block
-5 Speed gearbox
-Bilstein front/ Spax rear suspension and 1 inch lowering blocks
-Single leaf rear springs and 2 inch lowering blocks (not fitted)
-Brand new never used Midland Wheels RS 4 spokes (7 inch) with new 175/50/13's (not fitted)
-Mexico front wings
-Standard rs 4 spokes fitted to car

The shell is one of the best about, the only welding it has ever had is when the Mexico wings were fitted and someone has fitted group 4/rs top plates in the past. Original rear arches (when was the last time you seen a mk1 with original arches) chassis, sills ect all original. Shell was Zibarted when it was new which i think has kept it in this condition.

Headlights and grill are now gone as i was going to fit round headlights

Price is £6250 would possibly do a deal on a Cosworth










Cheers, Auld

As i am on the wst coast of Scotland an this puts some people off, if the car was bought i could transport the car anywhere in the uk on a trailer for the price of fuel.

Here are another couple pics, if anybody was serious about buying the car i would dig it out the garage over the weekend and give the seats a good clean and condition and the carpet. Then get a few good photos





Cheers,auld
