escorted series 1

This is my series 2 im trying to restore.I got it back from the sprayers last week after loads of welding and a full respray and had to put all the bits back on like rear spoiler side repeaters window rubbers and loads of other bits and bobs.The interior was stripped out before it went in so today i thought id take the dash out and restore the inside been as id done all the exterior.The mane reason was water getting into the footwells.

The dash finally out never done this before and was a bit nervous.

And this is what i was bloody greeted by.


I picked up a mig welder but i cant weld to save me life wortha try thoe any tips anyone.think ill leave it to the proffessionals.



All Stripped out im gonna grind it all back and give it a few coats of hammerite black paint i think


Im a bit puzzled the water i can see is in the center of the dash underneath but these holes are on either side behind the scuttle god nos.Its sole destroying seeing more holes.

did you buy that from erith??? if so i would take a look to how the front is held on. very poorly i would think if its the same car! as i know it of had a full front end and the welding aint very good!

Fair play to you saving it though. a lot of people would probably break it up if they came across that! I did but kinda regret it!
