im chasing

-MK2 sports cluster (or an rs2000 cluster)
-set of engine mounts
-front grille (round headlights)
-set of round headlights
-4 spd gearbox
-pedal box for manual conversion (lookin at one on ebay for 45 bucks)
-washer water resevoir
POSSIBLY a mild 2L with all gear...

its a crazy idea but im actually thinking of getting the little esky running withing the next year or 2 (gotta fix the fairy first obviously )

cheers guys, any help is appreciated, grabbing the quokka tomorro for a looksee

Thats the spirit.sell the fairy and get a paint job. a mild 2 liter in this will be fun.
It is more fun working on this than the ghia aswell. Give terry a ring. i'll keep an ear to the ground. a bloke at work does these

i might be able to help you out as my uncle has a s*** load of parts for escorts layin around,ill find out and pm you in next couple of days with details

moods- ye no s*** man, ive had enough of the fairy, just gonna fix it up and sell it...escort is still a decent passenger car, fun to drive and is cheap on fuel...to an extent

booger- cheers mate, any help will be handy, even if its just a few cosmetic things

ALSO chasing some nice 2-pak paint, preferably black or maybe that hsv purple

Heres that morpheous colour on FF at the moment

Thats the cadbury color!!! lol

Big Tilly- have emailed the person regarding the paint, thinking it will look F****g mint on the escort...wasnt much in the quokka this week unfortunatly

lol dan, cadbury colour gives me ideas for a number plate hahaha

Haha.I used to have a shed full of escort parts when I was racing them but i ditched the lot
Now I have a shed full of Falcon parts

spewin ey, ah well gotta make a fresh start somewhere...i gotta suss out cleaning up my old 1600 engine and go fast bits to sell off...

the guy with the paint is unsure bout posting the tins, anyone know if couriers post paint tins with care? or do u reckon id have empty cans in a colourful box delivered to my doorstep???

also...is anyone interested in a '76 4 door escort sedan (1.6L auto), colour is red, rear has a bit of a dent, front end fully rebuilt, chassis is straight as, one of my mates is trying to get rid of it...located in como...think hes chasin 3000
"tell him his dreaming"
but then again ive seen em go for more...

cheers fellas

lookin at 500 bucks for the paint if i can organise a courier...anyone know of any couriers that would transport interstate?

bit of an update, just chasing an rs2000 instrument cluster, in full working condition AND some quarter bumpers, not the big long bumper that comes on most escorts

my uncle sold his mk 2 2 door,with all his spare bits along with it,had a roll cage,2 4sp gearboxes,2 2liter engins and s*** hey,sorry man cant help ya

thats cool mate, still keeping my focus on the fairmont for now anyways, bits for the escort here and there are a bonus...

lol chasing a Sierra 5 Speed gearbox too

seen one AGES ago which i should have bought, was 800 bucks in the quokka dammit

where would it be coming from?? most couriers would charge a crap load coz itd be classed as dangerous goods n stuff.

if you can find out where its from, i can c if i can get my company to pick it up and ship it over to me.

done it before...but cant promise anything.

lemme no.

couriers already been organised eh, 105 bucks all up for the courier so it wasnt too bad actually, cheers for the offer tho mate
