The second pic is my mk4 escort van that i finnished 3 weeks ago and traveled 260 miles in it on the very 1st day i got it on the road to tow my new escort up the road after i bought it. The new mk1 will be my winter project, Hope you like! Cheers,auld

  7. I am going to be fitting either a pinto or xe engine into my mk1. Whatever engine i fit im wanting to make a custom loom for the car because i would like to hide all the wires ect in the engine bay. My question is,is this a hard task to undertake? would i be better getting a pro to do it? any good auto electricians in scotland that are into old escorts?? cheers,auld
  8. Jazz my brittish bullodog auld
  9. any more pics of the car mate? looks nice! auld
  10. Im going to run quite a simple rear suspension setup on the mk1 but would like to ask a couple questions before i go out and buy the parts. My mk1 will have round rear turrents and im going to fit tramp bars,its a '68 mk1. Do i go for straight or angled tramp bars? someone told me that if you fit the angled ones thay can also keep the axle from moovin side to side? is this correct? Im not going to be fitting a panard rod kit,as iv heasrd stories about ripping the boot floor and dont like how they look. Will the tramp bars alone be ok for a fast road car? thanks in advance, auld
