Yep!, is that the wrong thing to do?

Re: My Mk2 Escort Sprint Car (A Vessel for frustration relief)



Just recently moved, so the car had to be moved from the garage, I was quite pleased on the look so far.

Just a shame that its not going to get used anytime soon!

Looks very smart, just dont like the mudflaps myself. Is it all mapped? Engine bay looks extremely nice.

Hi Dave, no not mapped yet!, time and money!
I feel the mudflaps make it look purposeful, I just have to find the purpose...

I am planning to make the car road legal, as the competition bit isn't working out.

Very nice but I have to say that I don't like the flaps either! It's not a rally car is it?

Re: My Mk2 Escort Sprint Car (A Vessel for frustration relief)

looks like its going rally crossing to me

Re: My Mk2 Escort Sprint Car (A Vessel for frustration relief)

mud flaps look ok but maybe they would look better in black.
Did you brush paint the white paint on the underside and what type of paint did you use, was going to use coach enamel

Re: My Mk2 Escort Sprint Car (A Vessel for frustration relief)

Car looks very smart everywhere, probably would look better with lights fitted but not sure it would be great for the road these days if you did make it road legal. Do those rear calipers have a handbrake, if not we can swap and you can have road legal cossie ones

I say put the mudflaps on the tow car to keep the escort clean on the trailer! and use the escort for trackdays at brands if competing isn't an option at the moment. Would look good with a few nice decals on too
