Thank you very much for your advice. Greatly appreciated.

Hello there. Does anyone know please where I could get a replacement blower fan for a 1973 Mark 1 Escort? It's the one with the two speed setting you can use to de mist the windscreen. Thank you.

Hello Everyone, Thank you for all your replies. I will follow your advice and can now hopefully track down the floor panels based on the steer you have provided. Thank you for your interest and advice which is much appreciated Kind Regards. Mark

Good evening everyone. Thank you for allowing me to join your forum. I own a 1973 Mark 1 Escort 1300XL M Plate. It has done 105,000 miles and I am very keen to keep it running as long as possible. Every time I take it out I am always stopped by someone who wants to admire the car and reminisce. I have owned the car for more than 40 years although I have never tried to fully restore it. Mechanically it is excellent but the bodywork is a problem. I have a good garage who can do running repairs with rust but they have recently identified a serious problem with holes in the floor. They say they can patch them (as heas been done before) but I gather it is possible to buy new floor panels and I am keen to explore that to avoid this becoming an annual issue. The person I deal with at the garage was optimistic he coould source floor panels but when I asked him abvout it last week he admitted he had drawn a blank and recommended I join a forum like this to make inquires. I gather the floor comes in for separate pieces which when fitted togerther form the rectangular floor plan. It is nice to be able to speak to fellow Mark 1 Escort enthusiasts and if anyone kwows where these floor panels are still being made I would be very grateful. Thank you in advance for your help. Kind regards Watford Mark
