My MK2 flat front x-pack

Hi guys, thought I better post something about my toy.

Its a 1975 MK2 2dr, 2lt with some mild engine work, 4sp box, LSD, rear discs, some suspension work and a few other goodies.

Credit goes to the previous owners, as I have been driving it for a year and havn't done much else to it, but I will, its just hard to do projects on a daily driver.

Here are a few pics, enjoy :)

How wide are those rims/tyres on the back there ?

Cheers,

Thanks Guys

Rhys, the plates have been on there for a while I believe, since a couple of owners ago, at which time it was a turbo.

Damion, the backs are 15x8 with 225's

Cheers,
Rob

Wow I love this car! The colour is great, and the X-Pack kit with the round headlights looks terrific. The bonnet looks great as well!

Well done, I love it.

Very nice car you have. I like it even more than the RS2000 X-pack kitted cars.

Yeah I am a big fan of the boxy zakspeed cars with the massive front spoilers, but I guess I must settle for an x-pack, for now

JamesR, the white mk2 in the background? It was my previous ride, also a 2dr flat front, with rally pack and round headlights

Mick, the car is very much a head turner, as I'm sure is the same for most people on here, as you all have very sweet rides!!

maxrs, if I had a choice, it wouldn't be my daily driver, but current circumstances only allow me to have 1 car . I figure i drive it for a couple of years (showing it a lot of TLC) then when I get my own place I can start collecting Escorts

Cheers guys,
Rob

Drgrog....please Email/PM me as I would like to discuss a possible magazine feature.

Oh and the car is simply stunning. The colour is right, the wheels are right and the kit is to die for! What a killer car!

Thanks guys, the comments are really appreciated.

And if anyone knows previous owners (or is one), could they please contact me. I wouldn't mind getting in contact, having a chat, and getting some more info. It used to have the square headlights.

Also, are there many other flat-front X-packs around?
