    Just one more question:

    The roof is original on the Red Mk2?

    The car looks pretty cool

    Re: My mk2 escorts

    We tried one inch narrow we did not like how the wheels sat in the arch so we took another inch out of the case the wheels sit perfect in the arch now but before we chopped up the front suspension I changed my mind about using the wheels, the wheels will go without any mods with 175/50 tyres but I don't like the way the wheels sit in the arch

    Hey mate what exhaust manifold did you use on your red one? that bay is tight with the webers/battery and standard booster/exhaust combo.
