Originally a 1300L, restoration work on the car was completed 2 years ago. Finished in Daytona Yellow, this Tax & MoT exempt Escort was built to be used and enjoyed … and not to win any trophies. Please note; this is a UK car. Rebuilt 1760 Crossflow with big wing sump, 4 speed Trans X straight cut gearbox, 4:1 LSD, grp arches on steel wings. Obviously, any fabrication work necessary was carried out during the restoration including; front & rear floor panels, inner/outer sills, slam panel, front panel, rear wells etc. The following items are brand new;

Sparco Seats (date 2029) and subframes,

TRS Harness belts, 

Front parcel shelf, 

Kick panels, 

Interior door panels,

Carpet,

Steering wheel, 

Safety Devices Roll cage,

Exhaust,

Front coil overs,

Front and rear brakes inc lines, reservoirs and cylinders,

Genuine Minilites 8x15,

Tyres,

Quick shift,

Tramp bars,

Steering joints & bushes,

Headlights,

Propshaft,

Alloy radiator,  

Battery + leads,

Electric fuel pump etc. Few points to note; speedo and rev counter need looking in to, but the 4 small gauges are working fine. It’s obviously not concourse as it was built for regular use however, it’s a very solid Mk1 Escort which can be used and enjoyed straight away for many years. The engine was previously a dry sump unit - now converted back to wet sump; 1760cc, Kent .371 camshaft, big wing sump, twin 40’s etc. The underside of the car is very clean and also Daytona Yellow. I haven’t the patience for low ball offers … so these will be ignored. Car is located 5 minutes from M5 J21.
