As much as I'm head over heels in love with your escort, it makes me realise how shit I am at cars.

Awesome work

Cheers

Matt

 

Hah thanks Matt ,  :thumbright:  Its been a big learning curve for me. I had never built anything like this  :scratch:

 

Just read through your entire build. Such inspiration man good shit! You make it look way too easy

 

Thanks for taking the time to read the whole build thread Duddley :thumbright:  , looks easy in the photos but like you know with your own projects its far from it but at the end of the day its all worth while. Keep up the good work on the 2002  :salute:

Man, I am chomping at the bit to see this thing in it's finished form. It's going to look so fucking good. I see you've had the black stripe done between the gold and the red also.

When is reassemble?

 

Thanks Kyteler  :thumbleft:  , nice spotting , we have just put some pinstripes on , I'll upload some photos soon. Reassembly is already under way , while the painter finishes his last bits I'm already in there bolting suspension and steering in so I can get it on all four wheels again to trailer it home 

 

Cant believe how quick you got this thing built up, racing, disassembled and painted, and all to such a high degree of craftsmanship!! Really shows your dedication to getting it done.

 

Top work man.

 

Cheers Dan :salute:  , Ive put myself under the pump as Ive booked a date for the cert already so its got to be up and running very soon  :bom:

Man this thing looks exceptional. 

 

Sorry if I've missed it, did you raise this up before it went in for panel and paint? 

 

Thanks Mate , Yeah I've raised the suspension and moved the suspension points on the rear so I can get more travel. It was nice running low at the track but a shocker on the hillclimb. Looks like a rally car on the 13's now Ive raised it , also got to get through the cert so I'll keep it up for now and then play around with it afterwards :thumbleft:
