Change of plans! 

Still getting painted diamond white, but will be putting the chrome back around the side windows and tops of doors.

Also it's rub strips will be fitted, along with the 3 coach lines (see pic below).

Front bib will still be fitted, but thinking of having no rear spoiler. (can always be fitted later).

Next year I'm going to get some bbs style alloys (sticking to 14").

And once the engine is run in, and I know it's good. Twin 40 webers, if I can find some.

Had the Escort up and running, seems to run a lot better since fitting the new coolant cap. Holding its pressure better.......need a new battery though. That ones past its best for starting. :)

No it will be worth a mint soon. I know my old xr2 would be worth a fortune as well lol!

I remember years ago you could by them for like £200 now there worth about £5000.
