Nice one

While I'm far from an expert on the subject, I've seen some Mk3/4 escorts converted to RWD using Sierra floors I believe, so I would've thought it could be done.

I'm sure someone more knowledgable than me will come laong though

P.S Keep us updated on the project, sounds a cracker.

Default Just a bit of welding

I was hoping that there would be no welding involved with this one but alas it needs rear chassis legs i know i can by complete ones for about £120 each but just dont have the time as i have too many on the go at the moment. Will have to drive it as it is for a few weeks until i get the Mk2 Fiesta sorted and on the road. Well here's a link to it anyway.

Just cut and paste
