KFX 34F Mk1 Resto

[SHIFTY]

Coming on well this Auldy, looking forward to seeing the end result
Is she staying yella?

Cheers for the comments lads!

Shifty, i really like Le mans green on a mk1 but dont think it suits an arched mk1 tho! So this one will be going Ermine white, nice and low and wide Ml's.
Should be a nice look,

cheers,auld

Got a nice wee update, the front end has been started.


Full length Expressed panels inner wing top fitted to the N/S and AVO top plate. Looking nice and factory!



The O/S has been cut back ready for the inner wing top, but will need some work to the suspension cup 1st.

Well thats the escort back home after a 26 hour drive! lol!

Very happy with the work that has been done by South West Restos, and witha wee bit of work the the rear arches the 10 inch comps will fit nice which is a bonus!

Picked up a nice pair of nos genuine ford wings while i was down there so once the mk2 recovery is finnished i can press on with this!

Here are a few pics...

looks ace this

[pockets]

Looks smart with those wheels on. Needs slamming though.


Is the race on to see who can be on the road with our escorts first?

[auldy]

Aye im going to adjust the coiovers tomorow nite and get it sitting how i want it. Was thinking of tucking it away until the mk2 recovery is done but mite get this done 1st insted??

Na i would say yours will be painted before mine and as you have most of your bits yours will prob be built before mine!

Ive still got to decide and buy an engine and box!!

Cheers,auld
