Hey guys Welcome to my escort build thread. So I've finally got my A into G and I'm going to get my escort back on the road(It's been a few years). I have purchased all sorts of new goodies for her which I hope to show you over the next few weeks as things progress. I'm a panel beater by trade and have take two weeks off work to get some serious work done on her. during those two weeks I have permission to have my car at work which makes things a little easier for me. I also have a week in between my two weeks off where I will have the car at work and will trying to spend some extra time there to get some more hours on her. So with the two weeks and any overtime hours I can sneak in I'm hoping to get a good 100hours to spend on her. So lets start with some not so exciting images of my bare metaled bonnet and tailgate. Bonnet after being paint Striped. Super Lucky to have a bonnet this straight, there are a couple minor imperfections that will require a small skimds but over I'm stoked with it, you may have also noticed, I welded up the badge holes. Don't get to angry at me please, I kept the badges so If later I decide I want to run them I can but at the moment I'm not planning to, I also keep the heat right down while welding so there is almost no distortion, also please note behind the badge holes is where the worst rust of the panel was in both cases of tail gate and bonnet. Bonnet after Metal Prep First time metal prepping in years, so careful to keen everything uber clean and pretty happy with the result. Bonnet in Epoxy primer Discission Thread
