Have put the car back together for the next round of Fabrication, was hoping to not send it off again, but might as well get exhaust done at the same time,
 
Here is a few more pics of the Escort Crossmember with Rack and Pinion,
 

 

 
Closer look at the mounts either side
 

 

 

 
Gearbox mount
 

 
Heres a little bonus ive picked up, instant anti-dive kit, ill get an angled bracket welded to the cooler/radiator bracket, think i might have saved a few hundred bucks off a kit from the UK
 

 
Here she is back together, have to find or make a new Turbo manifold as changed the rear housing to a T3 frame
 

 
Novelty pic, having the youngen helping out
 

How did I miss all the progress updates? It's coming along super fine indeed!

It's nothing worth mentioning Hayden, ill be sure to wake you up if you aren't paying attention on the streets tho haha

So this slapper has been ignore as busy at Uni and home reno's

Plumbing, side bars, seats etc etc yadda yadda, you know what a car looks like




 
Add some flavour also

First time I have notice this. Absolutely brilliant way of mounting an engine. Do you mind if I pinch your ideas for a duratec install? Looking at fitting one in both a capri and Escort using the same mounts....I have a very skilled fabricator working on my Escort at the moment and he loves a challenge.
Great stuff. Keep posting pics, please.

Yeah mate all goods hey, not as tho its a new thing to cars, just a matter of not staring at it to long and just getting into it, my suggestion is make sure all ancillaries are on before final welding, i forgot the starter and is really tight in their, did not think it was that big haha

Great stuff mate, got any pics of the brackets used for the front calipers
 
Cheers

Hey Matt,
 
Essentially they are similar to the ones you made for yours, ill grab a pic for comparison when im next out there.
 
Nonetheless, here is a variation of the anti dive kit, you get the idea.
 

 

 
Here is the rear end with the exhaust, alot going on under their, but tucked away
 

 
Hopefully this is the last time the engine comes out
 

Hey Buz440,
 
I'm thinking about replacing my seats & I like your Recaro seats.
 
Do you know much about them?
 
Thanks.

Number one rule when 'trying' to build a car, while working and studing is.....
 

 
Never buy another, or...
