Stunning !!!!!! Only thing i would change would be the exhaust clamps for stainless mikalor type which clamp exhaust without damage.
All the plated pulleys look really nice and factory.

Not jealous one bit lol. Would love an escort cosworth one day but I doubt that will happen with the prices there fetching. Dad's had most rs's while I was growing up. But as he got older he got a old man's merc lol so sadly i was too young to get any off him. If we knew what we knew now with prices.

Nice glad to see you changed clamps.
Also see the engine was timed up like a pinto at some stage in its life.
Looking very nice.
