Arches have been hand made from original british steel using good old fashioned hand tools...  I wanted all the rear end same colour but some how it ended white /blue/white? it was done again but ended up another shade of blue,its not that bad ,but I lost the original look I was aiming for.   |

Thats bloody unbelievable!!!!! Awesome workmanship there. If you had that car in the UK you could sell it on eBay, and retire on the proceeds.

Things are moving slowly with this project New wheels 7x13 and a 8 hr drive to bangkok. Nothing much fell off ;D just the back perspex screen which hadnt been fitted properly. Big lorry was going opposite way and the perspex blew out,glad it wasnt real glass. Moneys being spent on my other escort at the moment, but plans are to strip the escort mk2 4dr thats already fitted with a 4ag pictured here  As well the running gear is pretty good axle brakes etc and hasnt being japanesed,means i can lose my temporary corrola calipers fitted for the drive to Bkk. There is a historic rally championship held in thailand and as such ford escorts are not represented,most of the competitors are using J cars. Ive made it my goal to enter one of the cars into the group A class,basically this means it has to have ford engine and ford body,there is a group B where you could use a different engine ie toyota but its not contested very well. any way enough ramblings heres a couple of pics after i got it home.  minus the rear screen.  |

Wow incredible work. Shows how easy we've got it over here with bubble arches been available off the shelf etc. Not many people have the skills to do anything like those arches over here.
