Have just bought a very nice MK1, no rust, 56000 miles and roadworthy, ready for reg(reg expired feb 08). Bought from son of original owner (lady in her Nineties) and was just too good to pass up. Took me about 15 hours to tidy it up (not bad as I have been working on my project for about 18 months). What do you think of it.

nice find!!
what are the plans?

What do I think of it? Hmmmm, I as jealous as hell!!! [:p]

very tidy escort man
a cool set of wheels would set it off nicely.

That is truly fantastic! Apart from those hubcaps of course, but that can be easily fixed. Excellent find by you, and a car well worth preserving. Get some baby oil onto those switches and interior plastics. They'll come up a treat.

nooooiiiiice

nice one what's the spec motor etc...

any engine pics??

dam nice basicly what i hope mine will look like (minus hubcaps hehe)

Hi all, yes I think it was a good find, should be on the road within a couple of weeks. I intend keeping it till I get my project on the road then will possibly sell it, maybe. Engine is a 1300HC power house of power and as pics show I have not even cleaned it up as yet. As for the hub caps, original owner has the genuine caps somewhere and will hand them over as soon as he finds them, so I will either paint wheels and fit them or might later fit a nice set of wheels (superlite?? have a set just sitting there off my project car)

what state ya in .... I would like to have first choice at buying if and when ya want to sell please [:p][:p]
