Shaun's mk1 Escorts...

Well it's now uni holidays and about to get stuck into some work on the Escorts. Thought I'd post a pick of my daily driver for the last 10 years. Here it is on it's last trip back from uni.(300+kms)...

I managed to clock the odometer 00000 miles. Does that mean i have a new escort now?


And here are the twins. White car is set to be a mexico style rep.



Also hoping to finaly get my MK2 corty ready for rego.... Going to be a busy summer.

nice cars... [;^)]

so jealous.

Can i ask where you got the white car from?

Yep.. I think you can join the dots on that one Mat [:I]

If only you hadn't pinched the original interior!!![}:)][}:)][8~2][8~2][8~2]

Still unsure where I am headed with that one.

Either going to leave it stock looking and drop the turbo motor in it, otherwise I have a mexico sticker kit/dash etc that I can fit to it with a black/stripped out interior.

The green/blue car has a pinto with valves/headwork/Emerald ph4cam/45s etc. Have a few fuel injection options which I am going to play around with this summer and forced induction.

Opted out of going down to Phillip Island for the V8's this weekend so thought I'd better do some work instead... Currently taking a break from the sun.... Still a work in progress.




The front guards are pretty much beyong saving. Have a donor shell sourced in Geelong but will probably opt for Geoff's twink ones yet.




Still not sure what is going in here... [x2x] Currently it is still the 1098cc monster!!!

Getting there...

Still touching up bits and pieces.

Have the passenger side rear arch and some more work on right rear to go.

Working out which wheels to use. 13x7 dragways, 13x7 steels or 15x6 intercepters???

Made some small progress, both rear guards, side and rear panel sections done. Unfortunately the front guards I got had a fair bit of bog so it looks like I will be saving for some fiberglass ones after all....

Fitted new front discs, reco calipers, bushes and sourced a hilux diff.

Still need a front panel section, anyone got one??? [x2x][x2x][x2x]






Going to need to sell some more things for parts. Anyone interested in my spare Garrett turbo setup. $1000 ono.



The corty is also getting there....

Door is just sat back on now with some spare bolts to keep the weather out. 37yr old doors pins are fun to remove aren't they..

Nigel, Got your email, I'll drop in for a look soon.
