That is very nice and your girlfriend even got involved, I would have to walk over hot coals to get my wife to even talk about them let alone paint some of it. Looks wicked.

nice.

love the forest arches on a mk2 escort

i had a mk2 escort back in the early nineties, and put an x-pack on it . . . .

i did all the work myself and i thought it looked the business, but in hindsight i must have looked a right tool.

LOL - I know what you mean - I always wanted (when I was 18) to fit XR2 pepperpots to my "hearing aid beige" 1.1 Popular Plus Mk2 Fiesta - soooo glad I never got around to it!

That looks great Paul, a proper street machine. Good work getting it into not one, but two magazines...

Retroracing make the coolest bodyshells bar none. I've nearly finished my TA01 based Mk.2 and I think I'm going to do another straight after.

Here's a teaser, should have it on TC next month I hope

Nice to see that -made here in Finland.Escort's are still very popular in group-F rally(2wd, no turbo,at least 7 years old) and they can still beat M3 Bemers and Type R Civics.
