Matt.C Posted March 7, 2010 Report Posted March 7, 2010 Out with the old. And in with the new. I will be starting a project thread in the projects room as soon as i get started on it. Just waiting for my sister to take her trike out the garage then the escort will get stripped to a shell for welding. Already making up a shopping list: Tran-x plate LSD Either willwood or hi-spec 4pot front brakes Coilover front shock and uprated rear dampers Milton A frame axle location kit Engine, a few options, havent decided. Will one of the following. Pinto Zetec Cosworth yb 200sx engine, ca18det or sr20det. Engine will depend on budget at the time and what comes up at the right price.

Fiesta Steve Posted March 7, 2010 Report Posted March 7, 2010 You missed x-flow off your list of engines
sampedlar06 Posted March 8, 2010 Report Posted March 8, 2010 lovely mate dosent look like theres to much work to be done PInto it!!
Matt.C Posted March 8, 2010 Author Report Posted March 8, 2010 It is very solid. its got a small hole in the O/S outer sill, one in the corner of the boot floor and a couple of small holes in the driverside foot well. Im going to replace both front floorpans as they have been patched before and i want to tidy it up and make it look neater. Its got a pinto in it but im on a budget and i can get more power cheaper from a different engine. if i had an unlimited budget id go all out on the pinto. i could get it on the road in a couple of weeks but going to take my time and make it as nice as i can.
