Ok i have got 3 pics today of his mk2 escort which is going 4x4 cossie power using 4x4 running gear ect
And the planed spec so far is ;
T4 turbo
Inlet he's looking @ the swedish one
Rs500 cooler
Focus RS Rims
And a X Pack
As for Mangment ; He's looking into the Autronic set up

His the pics the garage is VERY FULL atm but waiting on a shed to move things into tools ect

 

bit tight for space isnt he

 

Lots more pics needed here

 

id like to see him fitting a cossy lump in that garage

 

Not sure about the colour though

 

 

grant_xr, Just abit

Twins, Will be as soon as my saphs done and the rs500 goes over his other half garage then we can get the sheds up and move the tools and spare parts ect into them
And we can get the car out on the stands and get better pics the car has only been in there 10 yrs

mark@fordrs.org, whot are you getting @ then m8 eg cant move in there atm or saying that you need a big garage to carry out a major project like this is
Must of the hard bits done which is lining the saph 4x4 running gear up and tacking it in place to finish

Greg its going BLACK so its going to look hard as fook

I will update this more when me can move in the garage

 

18" on a mk2


I wouldnt, 16" biggest id say and the FRS Rim wouldnt suit it at all imo

 

be very interested to see some more pics of this & info on how the whole thing comes together

 

Rad its a very wide kit same sort of kit as the tt v6 3door that was on here some where had on it
He's into minds to put the frs rims on the escos but will still need spacers and use his 18's super t's on the mk2 will have to wait and time will tell

Niall.b, Yes m8 asoon as it gets back under way i'll be getting alot of pics for him it will have to move into the other room the (rebuilds/resto)

 

sell them and get a retro rim, would look shit i reckon

 

chill out bud. just saying you cud do wiv a clear out

 

gonna have to use big spacers for frs wheels,bugger all offset on them!

Good luck on the project though,get on turbosport.com for all the old skool advice

you'll ever need

puddy

 

mark@fordrs.org, I see sorry read it wrong

Rad we will have wait and see m8

puddy, i pointed out that to him yesterday

 

blimey: I take it that this is in the planning stage & he's not actually started it yet: just preparing for the 'off'
Looks to be a big job ? Is it ?
Best of luck to him (& you if you get involved)...seen a few Cossied old skool Escorts & they look awesome

 

Well all the saphire 4x4 running gear is under but just tacked in place to be welded in fully

Got the front end on kit wise the engine bay is going to be a right c**t as theres not a lot of room fingers crossed we may have the Rs 500 intake soon so that will be most of the bits sorted just needs to get under way

Getting a shed up this wkend so hope to get some better pics soon as we can move most of the spares and things out into the shed

As for whot im going to be doning so far all i know is ;
1) I have the Tow Vechile (sp) so if we need to take it any where it will be me
2) Keep an eye on the time for the tea breaks
3) Make sure nothing catches fire
4) Just be a pain in the arse and take lots of photos

Ps im not going near the Welder as i end up trying to weld some thing that does'nt need welding I'll be f**ked if i can see where im going with a Mig

And i'll proble be cleaning te Escort Cossie

 

I think you've got the 4 most important jobs them. Without you, this will never be finished, lol

 

And a 5 one Going around to the fish and chip shop

 

heres a small update





as you can see he has a room for all the nice goods to set in so there dont get damp or damaged

 

More pics.



Dave.

 

Dave wait untill we have got the 2 sheds up and cleared the garage out abit then we will get started on it after mines finished was ment to be picking up the rs500 inlet today but got let down no one aswered the phone to comfim they where going to be there and it was going to be a 1h30 - 2h drive so will have to wait untill next saturday

 

think that will be a good idea.



Dave.

 

OK need help soon to disided on witch kit the Thunder Sallon or a X Pack the motor is going Black i'll try and get some pics up of both kits to disided on

 

Well he's made a good start to the clear up fingers crossed next wkend it will move out of the garage and get some better pic's

Heres some i got today





The cut out in the inner wings are for the strut moutings for the coil overs (like you have on any saff or escort cos )


This is for far the Focus RS Wheels sit out so will fill the arches well as we are now going to fit a x pack as the thunder soolon kit is going to be to fidderly to fit as its made for a space frame motor and then it would need wide spacers for the wheels to fill the arches


The urder side of the car not great pics as its still in the garge

 

has there been any more work done on this
project would like to see more pic's keep up
the good work

 

Tbh all thats happened so far is its a lot clearer in the garage and inside the the car
