ROADWARS

engine
buy a bumped turbo diesel escort transplant engine tweek actuator 2 turns with a filter de cat it and add a backbox

exterior
remove front doors with relavent wiring and have central locking and electric windows
also add foglight bumper

interior
use carpet and front seats with relevant centre console for switches

then have a good weigh in

Conor Harrington

ohh and a space saver wheel lol
cheers road wars great info there hwo much would that all cost then rouglyy??

TOMMY_RS

a bad boy bonnet is that shit thing on yours lol, where it makes the car / van look more 'mean' lol.
and ok mate go take some more pictures of the van, don't really like the colour tbh, and it looks like it certainlly does need a fucking tidy up lol

Conor Harrington

lool ohh rite i see i see yeah had a quick clean up with it so looks alot betetr lol
well your gonan love the van even more because when it was sprayed with the clour they dient do inside the back which is lvoly and red lol

TOMMY_RS

no offence, but sounds and looks in the pictures like a shit heap, how much was it?

ROADWARS

iTrader: (1)

should be able to get one bumped from your local sales for no more than 200
transfer all the bits have a cracking little van and a good weigh in and poss sell some parts and get most or all of your money back

TOMMY_RS

oh yeah on the picture you can see they didn't mask the indicator off properly

Conor Harrington

ohh really thats cheap enough might have to go down that route and speedy we sorted out the paint on the indicator hah

TOMMY_RS

1. get rid of the tow bar, unless your going to be using it, if so tidy it up!
2. get some decent alloys - preferably black
3. give it a good tidy etc
4. replace the missing fog light in the front bumper
5. get a normal bonnet
6. paint the grill black to match wheels

thats what i would do if it was mine

mk3_escort

Can you post some pics of your car up speedy-tom so I can rip into it and call it a worthless piece of shit please.


That van looks tidy enough mate, good start for a project, keep the updates coming

Conor Harrington

hah good eye you have tom
missed the over spray on the back bumpers haha.
but yes on my list atm is alloys, lowering blocks,
and a good tidy up.
and yeahh im not a fan of the bonnet either so that will be done

TOMMY_RS

sod that ^^ lol, the van will look good i think when its tidyed up

oh and mk3_escort, don't really think theres any need to act a twat, was only saying what i think to it, it will be good when its tidyed up, but saying my car is shit and you havn't even seen it WTF lol

conor, when are you going to start working on it mate? when you get the money etc or has work already started







there you go, take the piss as much as you want, totally standard car, can only just about afford insurance, tax, diesel, etc so can't mod it, but isn't a bad car to say i was given it

oh and another thing, have no idea why the pics are so small ?

TOMMY_RS

oh and a few other things, conor paint the back bumper black, well i would

oh and mk3_escort, did you make the car in your picture out of bits out a skip? at least my car is all one colour

mk3_escort

Im sorry your poor and cant afford your own car and I'm sorry I misread every post of yours slating this guy's van when you were actually being constructive.

I didn't call your car shit, I wanted to see some pics of it so I could call it shit, I got my microscope out saw the pics and was physically sick, i'd rather push that van than drive your car.

Take care

Hi mate,van looks fine as a base,but it's either on a private plate or had the mk7 front end put on it as it's L reg,looks like they left the mk6 interior in as well so I'm assuming a conversion on the front end.I'd totally agree with the turbo diesel route,you could probably buy an mot faliure straight for Ł200 quid.always liked them on softspokes myself or even polished rs2k mk6 rims.worlds your oyster on this one mate.

Btw that modded van in the pic looks dreadful IMHO,I hope it's a pisstake!!!

TOMMY_RS

and im sorry your to poor that you have to drive a shitty escort that every panel is a differnet colour

and at first I thought it was shite, but looking at it and after a bit of thought i reckon it will be nice, if you dont no conor, he normally lies ( so it seems ) but im pretty sure this is genuine, so iv got a lot more respect for him now, and you were physically sick? i'd get your self down to the doctors mate, why not set off now, you might get there tomorow in your mutilcoloured escort
