Popular Post Type49 Posted January 9, 2022 Author Popular Post Share Posted January 9, 2022 This evening I got the call. "Come and collect your Escort " So I jumped into the Transit and headed down to the paint shop. Had to get a couple of shots of it in the sunlight. Excuse the poor pics and shadows. 22 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Type49 Posted January 16, 2022 Author Popular Post Share Posted January 16, 2022 Tonight's mission was mounting the caster bar brackets/ bumper irons. Got them all mounted and trial fitted the front 1/4 bumpers. Actually fitted up quite nicely so they can stay on. Also managed to get some satin black onto the front panel behind the grille. 16 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Type49 Posted January 17, 2022 Author Share Posted January 17, 2022 Right front suspension assembled. Will have to probably remove the castor bar and trim some of the end to get more castor. But I'll wait till I do a wheel alignment to see how everything is. But hard to get a good pic but you get the idea. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
