    Have a word with Richard, Tremona Garage, Southampton, 023 8077 5829. They look after most of the local old RS's and Cosworth's. He helped me rebuild my MK2 Escort last year.

    monday is a bank holiday, so you might not get a response,

    dont be surprised if you dont get any sort of firm or even firmish price. as a business i can tell you taking on and finishing part done projects is a nightmare, and costs often spiral

    Hi Have you an outline list of your couple of bits that require finishing ?
    This may help guys out here to offer help or run for the hills. ( graham has outlined the dilema)

    Ok
    I see ^just^ a couple of jobs.
    We could do that up here nr Gatwick no probs, but sadly it^s not just a quick job.
    We have built & raced up the sharp end many mk1 & mk2 escorts. We have more than a workshop full of set up hub stands & related gear.
    You are more than welcome to call & discuss.
