Hi there everyone

I'm an Electrician that is sick of new cars and I'm looking at selling my fleet and buying Escort panel vans for my workers and myself.

My question is....

How hard or is it possible to put a mk1 front on a mk2 panelvan??

Any and all advise would be appreciated

It should be possible yes...

But why?

I just like the front end of the Mk1 better

But then i would need to find a front clip from a donor vehicle might be more hassle than what it's worth

The hard bit is moving the inner wings inwards to meet up with the mk1 guards, not impossible to do. Slam panel will need changing for mk1, rad support panel will need trimming to suit. Good luck !!

Being a Builder and also liking small fords myself, this is something i just wouldn't ever entertain..For work i believe you need a late model reliable Van/Ute and how do you get any tax benifit from a 30 yr old car?
