A Friend collected a MK1 escort today....

garyv6100e will have the wheels

i think he should sort out that rust spot before the next mot though, some mot'ers are quite picky!!!

If the rears are 13x7 wolfrace i will be interested in them

I have no idea yet,set of 5 though. might be 6 and 7's or 6 and 8's

Its not my car so i'll see whats happening in next few days

Get some more pictures up, inside etc

Ive been looking everywhere for an old pic of it ive seen it some where if any one finds any post them up. Its a shame he left it to rot whats the story why did he leave it outside. also looks like its lost its vinel roof. any pic of the interior.

Family life,lack of dry storage,own business started,one of those "I'll get that sorted for next year" stories.

That looks like it was ONCE a gem of a 'scort...! It seems like shed loads of work went into making it what it was once-upon-a-time... I particularly like the way the doors have been re-designed with no door handles and a Renault 5 style opening system! It's a shame it has ended up in the state it is in now...
