EGGMAN_MK1's 1969 Ford Escort

Standard Kent 1600 motor in at the moment.I still have to fit my 40's Weber Sidedrafts.Going to have to mod my brakes though.

4 into 2 into 1 branches currently in and stainless system to follow soon.I'll post some new photos after work on the engine compartment is done.

After that I'll carry on with some cosmetic work.Already have round grill and lights and corner bumpers for the front.To be fitted sooooon!!!

*UPDATE*

40mm Weber Sides are in.(Thirsty as hell, but to be dyno'd soon)

260/270 cam (not sure which)
I ended up having to re-con the Master cylinder and booster, but still crappy brakes.

I have purchased a BMW's hydrovac, which will replace the existing brake booster. (JAN '06)

New 4 into 1 branch was fitted and a Cowley free-flow stainless exhaust system. I opted for 57mm pipes.

She howles!!

Built custom centre console to house my JVC MP3/WMA player.
Fitted Pioneer 6x9's and a Jensen 12" sub that runs from a 1200Watt Starsound AMP.

I de-rusted the entire boot area and re-carpeted in Black.

Purchased an electronic distributor with control chip which also will be fitted in Jan '06.

New photos to follow early in Jan '06 !!!

;)

Hello from Argentina. You have a very mint condition Escort. I like the colour too. I prefer already in the old school the light colours.
Im a Taunus/Cortina lover, you can see 2 of my 3 Taunus in this page.
Im searching the rear black spoiler of Cortina MK5 XR6... Where I can get one?
Visit if you like the old Taunus our site, www.clubtaunus.com.ar ClubTaunus Argentina
Best regards
