Default My White Escort Rs Turbo
Had my escort off the road for a year now after stripping it all down to basically a shell i left the car for months as i was busy and kind of lost interest in doing it!

A Couple of months ago i decided to get on with having all underneath painted white along with the engine bay! Also re-newed more or less all of the parts underneath of the car and most things in the engine bay!

Finally got it up and running the other day so got a few pics while the weather was good

Still needs a couple of bits fitting,interior finishing and tidying under the bonnet etc but glad with how its coming along so far

Quick Spec List:
1991 H Reg Rs Turbo
53,000 Genuine Miles
2.1zvh
Stg 3 Cosworth Turbo
Jamsport Cosworth Downpipe
Scorpion Exhaust
GpA Pump
Kent Cvh35 Cam & New Pulley(still to be fitted)
Uprated Lsd Box
Modified Front Bumper for airflow
Grs Front Mount (Still to be Fitted)
Koni's & Lowering Springs
300mm Front brakes
Rear Cosworth Discs & Bias Valves
Polybushes
Etc Etc

Any comments welcome

Its lowered 30mm and on konis, full interior isnt fitted yet so still a little high

No didnt buy the wheels new, they are basically new though, no marks on them etc

Think they are just over Ł500 from ford though as was going to buy them new until these came up

Absolutely SPOT ON that, mate - perfection

The only thing I'd say is, don't do anything else to it as it's 'just right' as it is

Only got a few, this one has been off the road for a year along with my fiesta while ive been doing them both. This got left for 6 months or more though once i stripped it to a shell cause i lost interest in it while i was doing my fiesta.
So no one has seen this really as its just been garaged. Only got it back from painters a month or so ago so spent the last 3-4 weeks building it back up.

Thank god its more or less finished though, its been a stressfull few weeks!!!!
