tonymk2wagon Posted June 21, 2007 Report Posted June 21, 2007 thorght i'd get some pics in here of my escort. ive had it now for about 9 months after buying it of ebay. it was a real good find, old boy owner and next to no rust . i drove it every day for the first 6 months then after getting married 2 months ago i set about giving a make over for classic ford show. . first up was a pinto,which i pulled from a inj granny and t9. this was a good one but i gave it a freshen up and a porting. body wize it was very good but still was a push to get done in time, the doors were still in primer 4 days before cf . anyway further plans will be to keep it garaged more( its my only car at the mo) ,pair off webers, fr32 cam, a better t9, get my adjustable platforms fitted(when i get 5 mins spare time) and a cage fitted. hope ya like it
