My Escort Cosworth Monte M600 BHP(New pics 14.o5.08)
Since im gonna start putting the car back together over the next few weeks i thought i would do a resto post
Ive owned this car since begining of 2004 and its my dream(Sometimes nightmare
) car
The story goes this car was owned from new buy a millionare who decided to mod it into a no expense track car
The car then became something of a Collins Performance development car(It spent most of its life in Collins)
Then i bought it in 2004
This is how it looked
