  • Mk1 Escort front end rebuild

    Evening all,
    Have been a lurker on here for a few years but not really posted so thought I would put some pics up of this mk1,
    On the jig ready for some surgery,

    Wing and doors off,

    Working through the layers!


    Full length strut top trial fit,

    Inner wing trimmed up,

    Plenty more to come, thanks for looking,
    Cheers,
    James

              Evening all, thanks for the comments so far,
              Waiting for a couple of panels so onto the drivers side,
              Wing off,

              Hmmm, some interesting previous repairs,


              Time to work through the layers,


              Inner wing all trimmed up,

              Welded on,


              Finally for now, trial fit of top bulkhead panel,

              That's it for now, thanks for looking,
              Cheers,
              James

                    Nice job and quality work

                    If you want it, get it, before someone else beats you to it.
