    Why yours...?

    I had my first mk2 escort when I was 17 a £50 motor with a knackered 1st gear and all the panels and parts required to repair. Learned to weld and painted it signal orange to make a Mexico replica but it never made on the road, despite being 95% finished so got sold for peanuts. I think I brought a 6x4 shed with the money! Go forward to 2007 brought a signal orange mk2 Mexico dug out the welder and in summer 2013 finally got an Escort road legal. Been smiling, spending and stressing ever since. The joys of owning an osf!

  11. Colin Thanks for tuning my escort, over the moon with the way it runs. Top tip for the door seals, in the end I warmed them up in a old water boiler thingy worked a treat. Cheers Jeff
  12. Cheers for the welcome I was fortunate that the car only needed some minor fabrication work with included rear valance , petrol tank well , spare wheel well etc and loads of time removing old under seal etc and repainting the floor etc. It still wearing the paint from the previous owner , it's not 100% paint wise it needs some tlc but its needs to be driven
