Default My mk6 van project





This is my very underpowered 1.8 d 55 2001 escort van. I have plans for it to be less slow and look less scrap yard fit.

I plan on fitting an engine out a mk3 astra/ cavalier 1.7 td Isuzu when I find a donor car.

Im planning to paint it the colour of the new rsrs focus. That sort of grey primer lacquered colour. Rs2000 front bumper and a set of skirts once I put new sills on her.

It's been in the family for 8 or 9 years I've put puma wheels on for now.

As I'm an mot tester the weetabix sills havent been an issue but they will be addressed lol
As you have the ref showing in your pic mate and told us u passed the mot with rusted out sills u might want to edit some of that out lol

Nice, I was thinking of that exact respray option (2016 Focus RS Grey) for my van but think I may go the Frozen White still on my 02 plate.
