Top car mate, im building mine up at the moment also! just having a bit more trouble tracking down parts in Australia, looks like your on top of things tho!
The towers your using to flip the shell round, you made them yourself?
get yourself the adapter plate from Burton power to convert from vauxhaul to either a type 9 5 speed from a sierra v6, or possibly a good strong cosworth T5 box. if its gona be a road car dont go sequential! if your trackin or rallyin it it probably would be the better option or a dogbox from quaife.Are ya gona 5 link the back end or what you for doin? I' just up the road from ya in Derry
Thanks for the comment. I was gonna run with a 4 link with leaf springs but i suppose coilovers would be a better job with 5 link.Its gonna b a road legal track car.Think ill go for a 5 speed quaife close ratio box. Watch this space..will put more vids up as i go.
thats great the mk looks good,but in the states escorts are like the worst car you can but really LOL

No, my cousin made them for his project and gave them to me. Dead handy. Couldnt do the project without them. Good luck with yours :)
