Hi Stuart, That's a great find you have there! i actually dont mind the spoiler being white and as for the archers they just have tough written all over them! Those trims are very nice aswell. What are your plans with the performance side of things? is it a 2lt? Havin it a bit low with a nice note comming out of it will definalty turn heads where ever you drive it! goodluck mate  Cheers Rhys

Thanks mate yep its a 2Lt not sure what i am going to do performance wise but will eventually get a set of 45's but i will upgrade the diff before doing anything to the engine!
currently i am putting a type 9, quick rack and group 4 steering coupling have upgraded the brakes to VL caliper and vended disks! i also have a set of scheel seat that need a bit of re-triming before going in!! but so much for me wanting to keep it on the road......i haven't driven it in months!!!!!!!!!
Also i am going to paint it red black bonnet and rally decals similar to Colin McRae's escort

I know what you mean. I have even less excuse, I have a great big garage that the Eski lives in but so many other projects on the run that the Escort is only just starting to get attention again.
Still love this car, a two door flat front like this is my end goal with an Eski.

Nice work Stuart. You don't know how lucky you are with the state of those floor panels.
