New Mk3 with a difference | New Interior Pics
Picked my new car up last night, gutted that I had to drive it 1 mile home in the snow. Wheeled her out of the garage this morning to take a few quick pics before prepping her for winter storage.
Sorry for the picture quality, taken with my phone.
A few interior pics.
A few underneath.

thats absolutely stunning! i can remember seeing this for sale a while back and thinking the wheels were abit small but i think it works :L
the amount of effort put into that is amazing, from the pictures at least it looks like every aspect has been covered lol

Fair enough mate, your car, your call, looks champion with or without, was just thinking it would go with the big arched old skool look.
Like it even more looking at it second time round. I bet it shifts well on the Webbers does it not?

Love this car, it's something totally different and done really nicely.
I must say though those wheels do look lost in those arches, it doesn't look bad but it could look so much better.

the car needs to be set up as the carbs have been apart. plan to fit a fast road cam over the winter, should be between 130bhp/140bhp then.

keith & his son jamie who built the car had a vision on how it was going to look, mk2 styling and fueling with a twist. i think they done such a good job i'd be scared to add anything in case i ruin the look they've achieved.

Shouldn't be a slouch then really, hope to have my new engine up to that sort of spec when it goes in the car in the new year

I see your point bud, and i agree, its definately had a good job made of it. Are they mk2 Escort arches adapted to fit the mk3 then, or completely custom made?
