1300 Sport

[Steels]

After joining the forum, I advertised for a mk2 1300 Sport, surprise, surprise, I didn't have any offers. However, last week I took delivery of a green 1300 Sport and when I looked at the Ford 'code-chart' it was made in February 1975 (early one) and registered in March the same year.

As the car needs SERIOUS restoration, I have been scouting through various Escort books which say that there were 'changes' between the early and latter Sports. I have also looked at some old Ford catalogues to find details of these 'changes' but without success.

I know this is mainly a RS forum, but it seems that other members have had Sports through the years. Any help guys? Pics? Anything would be appreciated.

Start a thread in the restoration section

If you put up pics as you go it will allow others to help on specific questions

Whilst yes this BB is mainly for RS models we all love a MKII on here

So you should get plenty of help
