hey all just brought an 80 spec escort and the shell is about 99% mint only a little bit of bubble round the roof, checked all the floor pans and boot and its never bin welded, was thinking of just wacking in a zvh turbo, but now i wanna go down the rwd route, and was wondering firstly is there any companys that will just fabricate the engine, rear beam, diff, gearbox mountings, and a rough price of it, if not just a company name and where abouts,


also a bit of a vote really what people think i shoud do with it i.e

put it back to an original xr3i (concours)
2l zvh turbo, turbo rep
or rwd sleeper

thanks

genesis did a kit yrs ago. very time consuming to fit. that takes all mk11 escort suspension ect. google them. iv'e got 1 if your interested.

 

i was thinking of okc, i tryed looking for jano on here to send him a message but coul'nt find, brobily be best to just ring em, i did see the kit i looked it up on google but i aint got any geometry tools or anything like that to line it all up perfect

 

also i was going to just cut the floor out of a sierra for the tunnel, and weld up the new chassis rails for the rear beam, but as ive got hardly any tools its a bit awkward

 

as above see jano he will sort you out

 

yeh spoke to him today, great bloke, gonna stick with doing the zvh turbo as i cant afford rwd :-(

 

been thinking of this for a long time now too. mite do it one day, how much did okc quote?

 

2 an half k, for all the floor work, mounts, tunnels etc but at least ya know its got a quality stamp of approval
