    1972 STCC MK1 Escort Timex sponsored

    This is my car then and now. It is undergoing a full spit restoration with all paint removed.
    The car has a long and sucessfull race history (never been a road car) I plan to be restored to FIA Appendix K specs and eligable for a historic HTP.

          Lovely I love an old Skool build,
          What is the stainless steel rods dropping down from chassis onto 4 link brackets on axle?
          I thought they were upside down shock absorbers but not so sure? Anybody?

                        You're doing a great job there, I like the fact that you've managed to track down lots of history on it as well, very cool
