Guest Aaron James Sadler Posted December 19, 2012 Share Posted December 19, 2012 I have started to treat the rust on the escort, using good ol' elbow grease, an angle grinder and a wirebrush... didn't realise just how rotten it was... but not unfixable , below are some pics!

Guest Aaron James Sadler Posted May 19, 2013 Share Posted May 19, 2013 The car comes back from the welder tomorrow, time to rebuild to see what the mot guy has to say I have quite a few bits for sale, the RS front bumper valance (i think thats what it called), full 88 spec body kit (wheel arch, sideskirts, front and back bumper), pepper pot alloys, mondeo alloys Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Aaron James Sadler Posted July 1, 2013 Share Posted July 1, 2013 Put it in for the MOT today, it failed on the following: Offside Side repeater insecure - New pair coming this week (both) Headlamp too high - Easy fix. Nearside front lower Suspension arm ball joint dust cover excessively deteriorated - Can only buy a pack of 10?? Offside Steering rack gator split - New air coming this week Offside rear parking brake recording little or no effort, offside rear brake recording little or no effort, service brake efficiency below requirements - to be fixed this coming weekend it got advised on these: Welding repairs to outer sills Offside and nearside rear and offside front brake pipes heavily corroded - To be repaired at a future date Nearside cv boot perished - New one coming this week Anyone know where i can get just 1 or 2 lower suspension arm ball joint dust covers from?

Guest Aaron James Sadler Posted July 4, 2013 Share Posted July 4, 2013 The welding was done, not sure why it was an advisory, but he said it was a good job? Anyway i've brought all the parts, now sunday to put it together Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Aaron James Sadler Posted August 8, 2013 Share Posted August 8, 2013 So it passed the mot and ill be bringing it to ford fair on sunday... looks a bit like a skip... but its mechanically sound lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skittles80 Posted August 8, 2013 Share Posted August 8, 2013 It's nice to look nice but its all about taking part least when it is finished people will see all the hard work that as gone in to it see you there Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Aaron James Sadler Posted April 13, 2015 Share Posted April 13, 2015 Been a while since i updates this post ... I MOT'd the car today with only 1 advisory which was the front tyres being perished but thats fine, as they are on Mondeo 16" alloys, and i have a set of Series 1 RS turbo alloys to go on (in need of tyres). So i will be bringing it to Ford Fair this year .... still not on any stand though as its still in need of a whole lot of body work...
