MK1 Escort pics

[jason-nike]

Its the time of year where all the Cossies are off the road, but the Escort being tax exempt is taxed all year round.

So weather wasnt too bad the other day so thought time for a quick drive and some piccys.

 

The car started off as a 1300, it was bought by my wife as a wedding present.

My mate sourced the car and put the stripes onto it.

It originally had steel wheels, but I sourced some RS4s, added the bucket seats, front quarters and the 2 up 2 down lights.

All was well until this summer when the engine decided to drop a piston, oops.

Finally sourced a 1760 (rebuilt etc) crossflow, which was then installed.

And this is how we are today with the car.

I know its only a replica, and would also like to change to round headlights, but time will tell
