Any updates????????

 

Perky555,

This is legendary stuff! and you have exceedingly large conkers to cut up a two door mk1! mind you, yes, she's a little crusty, so better that than in the crusher!

This is an awesome project, I'll be checking back for regular updates!

Kinda reminds me of a guy who fitted a Morris minor two door shell onto an S13 200SX chassis/running gear/engine, not sure if that's finished actually!

Epic! keep up the supreme work!

 

 

As exciting as this project is, I dont think there will be a cat in hells chance of getting it MSA logbooked for stage rallies due to the new "K37" technical ruling. Apart from floorpan and bulkhead modifications, it mainly falls foul of the rule that precludes 4wd conversions on a 2wd car, also I dont think a turbocharger is elligible on a car that never had a turbo fitted when in production. It will be OK for sprints and hillclimbs though as a modified production car.

Great project though all the same.

Any updates on this??

 

Aint updated i ages but to be honest aint really done alot. The floorpan is now shortend, and more stuff has been stripped of it.


But since then i have bought a 205gti trackcar so have been spending most my sparetime tinkering with that, setting it up for hillclimbs and road rallys.


And then theres my new Megane R26 F1 ive been playing in alot too..


Will try and do somemore soon i promise

 

Sounds like you need to donate some of your money to me and stop playing about with new toys!

 

just reserecting this thread as i have talked perky555 into selling me his mk1 escort impreza project, if you have followed my other project, you will know i did the rs200 impreza, now its time to start and eventually finnish this mk1 escort impreza, when the weather gets better ill be getting some pics up on here for you all to see the progress, bye for now,
phil.

 

Glad to hear this, keep us informed! Got three 'scorts and a classic wagon

 

Fair play,im amazed the car is still around,1st idea of this was 2005,5 yrs ago !!!

i havent got that much patience,after 2 yrs id of junked it all if i hadnt nearly finished

hope it gets "on the road"

 

great work so far, looking forward to the rest of your build

 

Gutted to sell this but i just couldnt find the time to spend on it that i would of liked. Ive had 2 kids since starting this so just aint got the time anymore, other toys also keep getting priority too like the Mk1 Rs2000 ive just got. I'll put a thread up with the resto of that if you guys are interested?

 

Bet that cost a few quid!

 

not sure if its the same car but could be as still to buy magazine but check out practical performance car as mk1 scooby escort in this months edition.looks sweat.

 

sounds interesting but i think i will leave mine as Mr Ford intended

 

Nice, same colour as my Scooby

 

OMG I love MK1's, want one back. What a project! Goodluck mate cant wait.

 

alright dan didnt know you were on here fella
