the car is a 1992 k reg 3 door in moonstone silver. it's done about 82 thou and tbh you can see it on the body but i have seen worse and it's not bad for a first car. it drives really well even with crappy cheapo tyres on it. just got back from driving around with a mate so i will get a pic up when i workout how to get this photbucket sorted out. |

my phone is about 5 yrs old so i thought it would be better to do it with his phone  still what can you expect on tescos car park.the corsa in the background is really tidy and it doesn't half shift. |

thanks op, i know what you mean about corsas but it's not the usual chavvy example with halford wheels and stick on viper stripes. the fez can still out handle it though even with the hankang tyres on(i think thats what they are called) anyways, what is the best way to start getting rid of surface rust? |

my dad used to have a j reg mk 5 escort LX in exactly the same colour and trim so you just brought some memories back lol. It looks good and I think with it being silver you can make it into quite a nice car. Make it into a silver si or xr/rs turbo and your onto a winner!!! |

i have a few ideas floating about but i want to get the rust sorted out, the fuel filler pipe is a bit loose becuase around it has rusted away on the back. i wil be lowering it when i can though with a arb'ed rear beam if i can |

rear arb wont make much difference mate, just get a front one sorted  my fiesta pickup didnt have a rear arb and i had no problems raping it around silverstone!! |

| Post subject: | Re: the mighty 1.3 beast! lol |
it already has a front arb but the bushes look like they have seen better days. i wish i could have seen the pick up it looked really lush. i bet you got some right looks driving it around lol |

thanks alot rob, it's nice that it had the xr2i rear spoiler and steering wheel on it when i got it so i dont have to start drilling more holes in the boot. does anyone know how to unbolt the steering wheel? it points off to the left when the wheels are pointing forwards

We could upgrade the engine with some BDP too! You sure that bodywork could survive a polish?

oi of course it will survive (i will go very easy on the rusty bits) i hope most of the rust shall be gone by then anyways or some of it, oh and a might need a new passenger door because a little gate post popped out at me when i had to reverse uphill on a busy road into a drive
