Very nice color is awesome

Oh Hi, saw that Mk2 Wagon in Bay View, Napier today.

 

Cool carry on.

Im living down here now cheers Billy

Very much like! Super tidy looking example well done.. What's the plans?

Going to keep original but redo shocks bushes etc so it drives nice might take it down an inch or two redo the interior but leave the body as a preservation style

This is soo lush and awesome that you're in Napier also. Will look forward to seeing this around!

damn you  im so so jelly, who did you get it from in wanganui?

Dont know Wanganui well but took about 20 mins from airport

How do you find cars like that! Oldschool Escort sport division should be a thing

Bought some parts off The previous owner and keep in touch. There are plenty of us Esky boys on here now always try to turn it out at The OS events

Oh man, what a mint example!

Looking forward to seeing how it progresses, there doesn't seem to be that many left in this condition. Chuck some Super Oscars on it and it'll be perfect...

Cheers will do

THis used to be round palmy! I would always pine over it when it zoomed pasted! Beat it a few times at the lights in my ghia

Yeah picked it up from Whanganui had an awesome drive over the Saddle rd to HB

What happened to the first motor?

Sold to a guy with a Lotus 7 got a good price enough to get the 1300 and a panel and paint.

A brief history

The first decent engine I tried was out of a friends lotus 7 it was rumoured to be built by Bob Homewood but proved to be a pain to tune

After this engine lost my way with the project considered selling so went to a 1300, which run like clock work and brought me back

With renewed interest in the project Panel and Paint was organised along with the all important wheels

Wheels have not been widened they are an ROH rim 13 - 7 inch

The finishing touches to panel

Picking up from paint

And now

This is my Mk2 Escort Wagon it has had many different engines and a full panel and paint and we have only just begun.

This is my long term project it has had many different engines a full panel and paint and we have only just begun.
