Hey I purchased my HC estate last year and wasn’t sure what to do with it! Most of the welding has been done and paint is definitely not the greatest, interior is all there and not to bad apart from the dash which is cracked
I had a st170 in the workshop that came out of a mk1 Escort (as you do lol) so out came the 1256
I have some retroford Escort engine mounts and retroford water rail but still a tight fit hopefully this week I’ll have it fitted in the bay
I have a RS2000 alloy bellhousing and a 4 speed but if a type 9 comes up I’ll fit one of those but time is tight as want to get it to retrorides in may!
Not sure on what fuel route to go but have 45s on an inlet which is simple and some radical jenvey throttle bodies
Bought some rims which are arriving tomorrow which will be fitted with toyo proxes R888 205/50/13 https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/7x-13-JBW-CD ... ect=mobile
