studleys escort estate build so far
well last oct i got offered and ford escort for a price that was to good to turn down, so heres my project as i bought her with no gearbox tunnel and no floors and as a bareshell all stripped, but with 99% of her parts to complete, heres noa as i got her
as part of the deal my mate who i bought her off of helped me get her back to a rolling shell so i could bring her back to london and after 3 long 16 hr days she looked like this
then it was back in with her 1660cc stage 2 crossflow that i built,
then once she was back to a shell with all her running gear fitted i had her transported to her new home
in her new home
now fast forward a few months of lonely work on my own with only help of my bro and a few mates here and there shes now running and nearly ready for her interior to be refitted. how she sits today
and now for her spec i have given her all the spec i ever wanted in a escort when i was younger and never had a clue how to do it she is
fully polybushed everywhere,
lowered3" on bilsteins all round
double width kit,
anti dive kit

mexico gearbox
1660cc stage 2 crossflow converted to unleaded
