Shitcake

Very nice ,looks like that shell had a hard life before you got it ,love the holes cut in the doors ,did you use hole cutter on drill for that

Shitcake

It had a very hard life, was beyond rotten! Yeh i used a 50mm hole cutter on a drill and bought a 50mm hole swager off ebay to curve the lips in to put abit of strength back into the steel, wherever i think i can get away with a hole i will!!

Shitcake

Cheers for all the comments guys, helps give me more motivation than i already got lol, had a few issues with the shell its back down the paint shop for the christmas period so will have a lot more photos coming soon!!!! Just hoarding parts for the engine build at the moment . . . . .

bly

take it your useing mk2 escort stearing rack? are you useing stearing arm extensions and longer bottom arms.
had to on my Rwd mk4, what length Atlas axle are useing , looking good luvit

Shitcake

Yeh using a mk2 quick rack, not using any longer or extended pieces, i got a world cup cross member and the chassis rails are at same width as a mk2, so everything is mk2 geometry, just using wheel spacers to bring the track upto the same as a mk4, using a capri 52" atlas for the rear, cheers for the comment

mgtkr1

wow. things like this make me feel innadequat! glad your losing the bonnet, thats far too much skill/engineering prowess for something as pony as that. clever guy, keep updating mate

Shitcake

Cheers for the positive comment, dont feel inadequate matey, things like this didnt happen over night, i was always told i would never do it and that gave me the drive to do it and prove them all wrong, keep an eye on the project will be updating abit this week!

Shitcake

Mmmmmmm Shiny shiny engine parts ready for engine build
