Gaz Posted December 27, 2005 Share Posted December 27, 2005 Couldnt find a topic on this yet. Looks like a mad deal. The three things you still need are the same as what iv been looking for. Seem to be the expensive parts. Also wondering why yours had circle lights? My 69 came out with oblong guys in thur. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kyteler Posted December 27, 2005 Share Posted December 27, 2005 Meth; the type of headlamps on the MkI's is dependant on model vairant. Jan '68; Model introduced, DeLuxe with round headlamps, Super version with rectangular headlamps. Mar '68; Estate car version introduced with stronger suspension May '68; Auto trans available as an optional extra on saloon models only. Oct '68; Various body refinements including chrome window surrounds and the fitting of safety handles to doors and windows. A wood veneer fascia panel and improved controls fitted. Anti-roll bar fitted to front suspension. ..... blah blah blah I still have an Escort "Owner's Handbook" and Servicing Guide by Haynes here from when I owned a MkII 2door. Think I've sold or gotten rid of most everything else. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kyteler Posted December 28, 2005 Share Posted December 28, 2005 You want the book? I have no use for it. $10 incl. postage and it's all yours. PM me if you're keen, keep in mind though that's it's certainly by no means a mint condition book, some of the pages are falling out and it's just generally tatty.

peteretep Posted December 28, 2005 Share Posted December 28, 2005 yeah square headlights were originally thought to be the best headlights, thats why they came out on the better models, something like 72 they realised it was the other way around so thats why rs's and mexico's have roundies and twincams have squares Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
