So well

Another Escort off the road (for awhile). Still not sure if i can be bothered with a restoration. But maybe abit of modding is in order whilst i have everything stripped out of her.

 

Maybey a good old 1.8 Zetec or i might stick with a rebuilt CVH. TOOOOOOO many options to consider, which is making a decision, an absolute nightmere.

have you got the funds to sort it out, cos it will more than likely need jigging. might be better to call it a day. what happened anyway??

 

could probo sell it as spares or to someone who is looking for a big project :steeringwheel:

I am always up for a big project. But it is more of the factor of "do I really know enough to fix her properly.

 

I have the funds and other resources (including plenty of time)to do it. Just a case of WHAT TO DO really.

 

In my case it was a :crazy: White van man deciding to cut me up on a duel carrage way and me not being able to stop in time. So the first thing to do would be to uprate the front brakes and disc up the back.

 

But i really need her back from the insurance people before i can see just how much damage there is. But a good £500 to fix her back up, as i already have loads of spares lying around anyway.

 

Oh well time to try and find a L/H hella headlight again (it was hard to find the two i had in the first place).

Yeah i guess your right. But it will take some time, as i will be doing it all by myself and i am not a speedy man. "AS SLOW, AS A 12 YEAR COCKSPUR RUM"

In terms of the car i am Barbasian and it will get done sometime soon :wink:
