  • such a fine example of a mk2..

  • nice car man

  • now lets go rally

  • I want! :D

  • Så genomtänkt bygge!! :) Had gärna haft en sådan själv :)

  • Feteste Escorten jeg har sett noen gang! Men hvordan du har fått skilter på den er meg en gåte. De gærninga på tilsynet får jo hetta bare hjula er 2 cm. for brede =/ Uansett, godt jobba!

  • You trashed a good wideo with music. Music goes ok with the pictures but I want to hear the engire ROAR!!! Awesome car btw

  • @jatava00 Read the comments above. Thanks.

  • this car is a monster! nice work

  • God damnit! Why do people have to put GAY ASS music over videos like this! Seriously pisses me off

  • @tribaldrummergod Youtube deleted the original sound. That is why the music is there.

  • @tribaldrummergod yeah your dead right lad! why do people pick shitty rock music on every vid!????? just leave it without!

  • @PRODRIFTER46 Youtube deleted the original sound. That is why the music is there.

  • @GatebilHenrik you just should have had the sound of the car and maybe a bit of music at the start no need for the rock shit

  • @GatebilHenrik yeah u shud have just used the noise from the car and thats it!

    savage car by the way

  • @PRODRIFTER46 Thanks. I didn't make til clip...

  • colour is gorgeous. fucking numpties. something different from the same shitty ford green, pigeon shit yellow red and crappy white.

  • its the a team car lol

  • tror da henrik har hørt rå motor lyd... trossalt en av lederene for powerdrift...

  • nice car , shame bout the choice of colours.

  • henrik: er d golf lykter på den? hehe

  • Jepp! :)

  • ligna veldig på de lyktene jeg har på 2er golfen min ama.. hehe:P

  • f s why does everyone insist on dubbing over the engine noise with shyte nusic??

  • anything else would be boring

  • @GatebilHenrik

    NEI! ingen musikk er bedre enn låten av en heftig motor!!

  • Joda, du har bare aldri hørt god musikk.

  • Haha, ja da har ikke du hørt god motorlyd ;)

  • Ok, jeg gir meg.

  • Thats what a mk2 should be used for..

    Who ever Was driving noes how to handle a car ;)

    Great video

    Ashley

  • Thank you! :)

  • The Song ist Artist from Alter Bridge named Open Your Eyes ,cheers

  • what is the song mate?

    damn wonderful car. You should post more onboard videos

  • Helt klart en nydelig bil! Har du kontroll på hvor mange arbeidstimer som er lagt ned i denne bilen eller har du mista oversikten?

    Sier det igjen, nydelig bil!

  • Hei!

    Har ikke helt oversikt, dessverre..

    Takk skal du ha!

    Henrik

  • Heey Henrik :P

    Nydeligt Escort..!

    Lurte på hva sangen i filmen heter?

  • Hei! Takk!

    Det var en sang Youtube tvang meg til å legge på så jeg husker ikke hva den heter, sorry. Det står en plass blant alle kommentarene. Husker en eller annen fyr visste hva låta het.

    Lykke til med prosjektet ditt!

    Mvh

    Henrik

  • so fucken fresh , love the drifting , your a boss.

  • The car is from 1978.

    Henrik

  • great car mate. i want the weather to pick up here so i can get mine out the garage again.

  • nice car you have dude

  • 0:36 omg:X

  • I think it looks awsome!!!! wouldnt mind hearing it tho

  • Fin bil as..

  • hvem sang er det?

  • Blind eller?

  • i want that car :)

  • Rear wheel Drive? how?

  • What?

  • mk1 and mk2 escorts are rear wheel drive straight out of the factory the mk3 escort was the first fwd escort... hope this helps

  • You kidding? Escort Mk I and II (this one) are rear wheel drive. Then they spoiled it with the mk III, front wheel drive, sadly. Same old story at Alfa :(

  • mkIII are front wheel drive but u can get a Cossworth (rear) ^^

  • MK3 has never been RWD - neither has it beed delivered with a cosworth-engine.

  • You did get factory built RWD mk3 escorts. They were the prototype RS1700T that was going to be Ford's Group B rally car before it was scraped for RS200 project. I've seen a few rallying back in the 80's in Ireland's RWD Rally Championship. Didn't have cosworth engine in, had Turbo BDA engine

  • i think i didnt explain it well. i mean you can allways get a Cossworth if u dont want a FWD car. I know Mk3 isnt cossworth but the cossworth (mkV) is a 4WD car with most of the traction on the rear wheels.

  • Why no Strong diesel engine?

  • Heavy and big...

  • hey nice Escort! i have searched more pictures of it from gatebil homepage. i'm going to buy mk2 soon, and going to make it from the floor to the top. If you could give me your msn or something so i could ask for some tips eample fitting different suspension

  • TURBO?

  • Yes.

  • My left n*tt for a real escort, both for a mk2. Nice car Henrik, The music suites the video.

  • nice but i wouldnt debadge it its ford keeping the blue oval is a privilage

  • It has a new front now, with the badge.

  • i own a ford fiesta :))

  • Why does everyone put music on car vids? I'll never understand it. The car is making the music I want to hear!

  • You Tube removed the original sound...

  • a corvette v8 in a ford escort mk2, thats an awesome project

  • and an awesome drift machine

  • Prøver du og si att Youtube nektet deg og orginal lyd fra filmen din her?

  • Jepp, det lå naturligvis en låt i bakgrunnen... Den skrev noen her inne hva het og da ble filmen slettet grunnet opphavsrett.

  • Hadde egentelig vært MYE bedre vis vi hadde fått hørt den fete lyden av bilen enn musikken da :P syns det ødela litt jeg :/ Eller var det en fet video med en FET bil ;)

  • YouTube slettet lyden.

    Henrik

  • Wicked I love my MK2's

  • Holy crap!!!! Thats just MAD!!!

  • teleio!perfect! sideways yeaaaaaahaa

  • Faen jeg hater Youtube opphavsrett! De sangene som var her før var jo bare helt knallbra!

  • Ja, kjipe greier...! Alternativet var å slette hele filmen.. :(

  • Det skal du ikke gjøre :P den er for kul for det :P

  • Now thats an awesome drift car!

  • cool car!! cool song!! who sings the song?

  • Open Your Eyes by Alter Bridge

  • who sings this song?

    thanx

  • drit dra henrik og veldig kul BIL!!! :D

  • omg ............. some seriouse power there

    goooooooo escorts go go go !!!!!

    nice driving man

  • who needs japan!!!

  • I DOO XD

  • WOW THAT GET'S OPEN

  • the only good cars i have ever had are escorts. i dont give a stuff about what anybody else thinks in my eyes they are great.

    i have a 4 door as a daily and a 2 door as a project.

    love your car man. excellent driving too

  • Thanks :)

  • ....beautiful ! ! !

  • did you build evverythin in the car youself?  ive noticed that most high profile cars where the owner only bolted the cars together and did just about only that hope someone will build the car al on theyre own

  • Ok.

    Henrik

  • bra kjøring:)

  • snakker vi høydepunkt på gatebil eller!!<3

  • kanon bra videro. sköna klipp. men musicen skulle bytas mot motorljud!

  • Det var motorlyd, men Youtube slettet den grunnet opphavsrett på sangen osv... :(

    -

    Henrik

  • helt rått;)

  • Jeg elsker den her videoen her!! :P

  • found it its alter bridge

  • whats the soundtrack to this vid its ace and im in love with your car

  • Alter Bridge - Open your eyes. Also check out Creed, if you like that kind of stuff.

  • Pokker... den bilen er grisedeilig! Pen kjøring btw..

  • beautifull....

  • nice car yes , about damn time theyre using these cars to drift , these are perfect drift cars , when i m at rallies , they drift the shit out of these cars trew the corners , it s like 86 corola but better !

  • Probably due partly to cost. As standard the AE86's have LSD rear axles which are 5 linked, with panhard rod and discbrakes all round. With 150bhp standard, they are beautifully balanced cars and ive had the pleasure of driving a fully sorted one. The escorts have nothing and cost 1000's to get to a similar spec, plus they rust faster than the devil runs. Im still trying to weld my mk1 mex - 5years and counting!

  • does it go on a straight line? lol great car :D

  • THAT WAS AWESOME

  • Dude you are amazing! Nothing beats an old MKII Escort! My father has one that he does stages in over in the UK. Beats Japanese "drift cars" anyday!

  • Henrik, i know the first song is (CKY-Flesh into gear) but whats the second song?

  • Sorry, it seems the finish-skateboard-rockers didn't like that I used their music in my video - so I had to delete the audio. Oh well, it's still on youtube, but now without sound.

    Henrik

  • Some nice driving skill there! Great car too! U have 2 love Cossi powered MK2s!

  • just seen this in fast ford mag love the colour, really cool, keep up the good work Henrik.

  • Is my car in Fast Ford? Newest issue?

    -

    Henrik

  • It sure is, theres a picture of it in the october issue, they done a gatebil show report. its looks mighty fine.

  • Nice! :) I'll look it up!

    Henrik

    Henrik

  • Would you mind if i steal your colour scheme on my next mk2 restoration? :D

    Got to say this is one of the best finished cars i have seen in along time! Well done!

  • Digger bilen din henrik.

    Er'n god og kjøre eller?

  • Meget. :)

    -

    Henrik

  • silly question but was this made to drift or does it just have an silly ammount of power and cnt help but drift ??

  • It has 650bhp! With that kind of power you can't help but hang the arse end out

  • This is not drifting. This is breisladd.

    -

    Henrik

  • This is an awsome mk2! Pretty much my inspiration for my mk2 =)

    what size wheels are they? and how hard is it to change the rear leafs to springs?

  • Thank you! They are 17" Braid rims.

    -

    Henrik

  • Henrik, I have a few up-close photos of Colin McRaes rather special Mk2, you are more than welcome to them to give you a few development ideas. Just pm me..

    Cheers,

    Paul

  • Thank you! I will do!

    Henrik

  • Helvete va snyggt bygge! Gillar det skarpt. Kanske den enda som jag har sett som har så pass hårigt bygge och orkar hålla putsen!! Tummen upp!! Vad är det för låt 0:40 in i filmen??

  • du som kjører på filmen? Pen kjøring iværtfall! Trenger ikke komentere bilen. Allt har sikkert blitt sagt 1000 ganger før.:)

    -johnny

  • Jeg som kjører, ja. Takk skal du ha! :)

    Henrik

  • best looking mk2 ive seen, love the paint job aswell

  • I always felt the mk1 had better handling, but this video makes me rethink what I know.

    Absolute work of art henrik. Love that picture of the exhaust glow.

  • Very, very nice Henrick. Im in the process of building a Grp4 mkII rally car for the forrests. Ive been looking for a decent large sized rev-counter and like the look of the one in your car, what make is it?

    Thanks,

  • Thanks! The rev-counter is from AutoMeter in America.

    Henrik

  • Thanks for the info, The Mk2 rallycar is coming along nicely, we've moved the front bulkhead which has enabled us to mount the engine 18cm further back for far better PMI. We are going the NA route for a linear response and more throttle sensitivity. The engine is a JRE all steel, Vaux XE 2.3 (long stroke) big valve touring car head running on Jenveys produces 295 bhp and 240 lb/ft torque.. nothing compared to your figures but ample for the forrests and should be better suited being NA.

    ATB..

  • Good luck with the rally Mk2! :)

    -

    Henrik

  • I'm suprised you didn't break your leaf springs on that old banger.

  • There are no leaf springs on this car my friend. :)

    -

    Henrik

  • how did u get so much power with a 2litre engine?

  • The right parts - and a big turbo!

    During this film the car didn't run with more than 500hp - it still has 150hp in it.

    -

    Henrik

  • Thank us Americans for such an awesome car. We don't even get the privelege of having he Cossie.

  • Thank you Americans? You've had nothing at all to do with the European cars, as they're designed in a different branch. For starters, the Escort's actually mostly British...

    :)

  • hey what engines in this?????

  • 2,0l. Cosworth.

  • awesome

  • 6504HK er jo bra det:) Kan jo nesten stille i Top Fuel;)

  • wow

  • Du Har en fet bil Henrik ;) Men hva heter Den første sangen på filmen her!? Klarer ikke slutte og nynne pån...

  • Hei! Takk! Mener den heter "Flesh into gear" eller noe slikt.

    -

    Henrik

  • Takker =D Endelig :P

  • does it go on a straight line? lol great car :D

  • NICE:)

  • Hur har du fått den gatregistrerad? Är den besiktigad med hela effekten? Väldigt grym bil i övrigt! Hälsningar från sverige ;)

  • Alt er godkjent! Takk!
