Hi All,
Have to regretably sell my 75 Mk1 2 door. Got no time in the next few years to restore it and have got nowhere to store it undercover. I would rather give somebody else the oppotunity to restore it than to watch it rust away.75 2 door 1.3 auto standard. Minor damage to the fr r corner,few dents in fr apron,1 on each door,couple on roof, all easily fixed. Unfortunately it was stored in a car port on the side of a house, so most of the rust is on the left side. Rust in sill, bottom of door, bottom of fr guard, and in corner of floor pan. It has no cracks in dash and has ford laser tx3 front seats fitted and 8in 12 slotters(bit rusty), 215 tyres on fr and 235 on back, poor tread.
Also have collected heaps of parts for 2lt conversion, efi etc Listed below
Suspension.
2lt x member, swaybar, steering rack, struts with lowered springs, diff housing with axles no centre.
Brakes
Front - 4 x volvo calipers.
Rear - 2 x R31 calipers with h/brake cables, 2 x saab calipers, 2 x saab rotors.
Electrics
Camira engine management sys. with ecu for conversion to escort

2lt pinto engine (cortina), 4 sp manual, 1 piece tailshaft, 2lt starter, extractors, 2x inlet manifolds, camry rad with twin thermo fans, manual pedal box. and more...

Hi Dave,
Had that van for many years, regret letting it go. Used to run it around Campbelltown when i lived there and Wollongong. It left quite few bommodore owners red faced...

Hi Dave
very small world isnt it, those were the days. My mate Jason Overalls had a red mk2 with a pinto that was built by Colin Bond Racing(his dads mate)when Colin was racing sierras. That was a fast escort. Some guys get all the breaks! Keep in touch.

Yes mate it sure is and that would be my brother.
Its a pity it was destroyed in the indecent with the taxi.
Back to the topic

If you start separating things,Id be interested in the rear disk conversion parts,if that is separate to the car.

cheers
Dave
