Update on the Mark 1 Escort.
Nick has towed it to his house where I moved in with him and I keep the car inside the garage and he keeps his shit outside 🙂 ((OOC Reason: Can't run the outdoors garage mod))
Anyway, took me a few weeks but I have got the whole brake system and suspension out, also the engine that was fucked.
I have ordered a rotary and custom engine mounts for it, also a new rear diff and a complete suspension system from a MK1 Rally car, going to turn it into a rally car!

This would be seen a few weeks later from the last post on the Escort
Sooo-...I have gotten it to a shop to get all of the rust damage fixed, the frame wasn't that badly damaged but the panels were horribly damaged, I got those fixed up tho', and I got it painted in British Racing Green!

This post would be seen after a few months from the old one
And it is finally time for the big stuff, the suspension! We have converted this beautiful beast from a live rear axle to a independdent rear and front suspension with a full WRC kit.
And the big one! The engine, I couldn't get the rotary in sadly, but I have gotten a F20 out of an S2000, I have also strapped a small SC50 turbo to it for that extra power, it makes 350 horsepower at the wheels on premium gas, on ethanol we reckon it makes 450 but that's overkill for this car, more pictures coming on when we test drive it!
