[mrmrmrliamo]

ur a very lucky man, u seem to have being lucky enough to get a very goot shell to begin with. keep up the good work. it can be dis hartening at times but ull get there. ive restored a few of these for rallying

[AyonRaven]

damn you guys didn't mess around, great restoration. beautiful metal work

[TheDriver713]

@ Petghettoballer23546 how much did you get this car for?

[666gunna]

Looks good mate keep up the good work. One day maybe I'll get to my Mk11 & finish it.

[MrAviator747]

What's the name of that song?

[Luke2896]

Hey mate, what sort of engine r u running

[seinfeld11123]

scares me to gut a car knowing im gana put it back together, because if u dont have brand new wire harnesses, its gana be a mission getting all the old shit to work again

escorts are great i prefer Mk1's the front grills are awesome, but mk2 are kool to great chassis

[wtfrsr]

i seee that u gutted the can did u stay with the stock rear axle or no

[m4dmike]

by the way wats the name of this song here

[safzuan]

simon mckinley..yup thats brilliant...twin webers? good job, well done!

[wharfedale2007]

nice escort mate, im also building one, shes a 4 door though, keep up the good work

[sniper6r4]

that escort at 0.16 is ment to be the ultimite mk2?

[40chim]

Theres something about MK2 Escorts that stirs the soul of this early 30's bloke typing this. Personally I blame Ari Vatenan for all his flat out sideways antics leaving a lasting impression on me as a young boy.

What motor you dropping in that mate? Heres looking forward to some more pics.

[Petghettoballer23546]

Thanks mate, im going to be using the 2.0L pinto mated to a type 9 5 speed, and a 4.11 Cortina MK2 diff. Iva made some decent progress in last few days so ill make something up and keep ya upto date if you want.

[blackniggerian]

My brother had one of those RS 2,000 left it in for repairs and forgot to pay the bill , and there it sits

[mill6771]

hi mate lookin forward to part 2, to see the end result have mk2 escort myself, locked away for winter cant wait to get it back out,gd luck way ur project lookin geat so far

[SiMoNsKy22]

ummm, yeah.Why did u ruin a perfectly good quarter panel? would hve been alot easier buying a set of steel arches. I think i can safely guess you dont have a warrior millington engine, so its not really a warrior ford escort mk2? but looks good so far, taken me 2 years now to work on my mk2 and i still dont think its perfect yet

[Petghettoballer23546]

I can still get steel arches, thats no biggie, just wanned see what it looks like! good luck with ya scort tho mate! sounds like ya been putting bit of work into in!

[leeg5601]
