Default Reyland Escort - Version 2 Build Pics

A lot of people don't really look at any other parts of P.F apart from 'General Discussion' but have a look at the ' Restorations, Rebuilds & Projects.' section at this post https://passionford.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=91171

Should be a lot of regular updates on that post from now on as Martin is making proper progress with it now

Colours take some getting used to... I thought it looked pony at first. Slowly growing on me, you have imagine it with much bigger and wider wheels, all the bumpers and spoilers on and a Big Silver Reyland down the side.

I like the Idea of switching the colours though.. I might do that

Preferred it all in silver, but I do like the dark metallic grey stripe on the silver, just the others look a bit .

Looking Horny Martooon.. horny
I must phone you soon, so start vetting calls....


sbd16v,
is that a normal escos engine or is that a bda
Id say it was an old YB Block he has lying around bolted in purely in order to size something up in the engine bay. The new Ex-manifold clearance perhaps? Must be a Mahoosive Turbo for that flange to be out there!! The cam Cover is off a millington motor i think.

PMSL @ pointing out it was a dummy engine, i think everyone (even Rob) worked that one out, just checking clearance on the manifold etc presumabley?

The distance that manifold sits from the head is a bit scarey, must be looking at a GT42 or something to fill that gap?

I dont see any harm in mentioning thats its a dummy engine, although most will have known/worked it out, some still wouldnt have, not everyone is as clued up as most on here.

Chunk, didnt mean that as it sounded, written word sucks sometimes, no offence intended Porkie!

Was just that martin is such a perfectionist that i couldnt imagine even the less technical people on here thinking that he would install such a minging looking engine

Junkies are all the same, they will sell anything they can to get their next fix, doesnt make any difference if its heroin or adrenaline they need their next fix of.

I always call them rocker covers even on non pushrod engines too Porkie, so you arent the only muppet on here in that respect.

I also have a habbit of saying cars like cossies have "wing mirrors" for the same reason, and yet obvioulsy they dont at all, they have "door mirrors" if you want to get picky about it like Sean is.

Yeah but Chip the difference is you know that YB's don't have rockers. The only rocker Porkie could relate to is a greasy haired dude wearing a leather jacket and riding a motorbike.

Yes, I tried to buy one off you. You ASSURED me they were the real deal even though I couldn't work out how they were for that price....

AND then you had to come running back with your tail between your legs
