Here's my 1.1 popular plus Escort,was standard biege when I bought it modded to Mexico look-a-like with 1.6 sport running gear. My first car if only I new then what I know now. Sold to buy my Capri in 1989
My 2.0 sport Capri with RS spoilers sold it in 1993 to buy my RS turbo which I still have would love some old school rwd car but can't justify the money they cost now

Whats a henway?
In the "Barn find" thread I posted a pic of this...
So yesterday I got some ambition and dug out a set of ARE mesh 7 X 15 wheels from an
old early '80s Mustang...
How much lowering does it need??
I'm thinking 2"(50mm) in front, an 1"(25mm) in back. What says you lot??
