How cool is that!
It looks just like one you'd see Grandad using to bump-park in Tesco's car park.
Note to all Barry's - This is how to do Escorts! Compare and contrast if you will with the naff lexus-lighted Mk5 in the background of middle pic!
Must have been a job to get the 4x4 kit in there....

That's excellent ;D I would have to tone down the exhaust and loose the clear corner lights for full stealth effect though. I remember seeing a Mk2 Gold with a Cosworth transplant like this a few years ago at RTTS. Yellow one with nasty venoms on it I think.

How they should all look. I agree about the exhaust though, maybe a more subtle black tailpipe would work better. I love sleepers.

I saw that Escort at Kev Fest, sorry I mean Ford Fair, as well. I change the front lenses for some orange items and maybe fit some of those rubber reflectors on the back edge of the doors, every Mk3 seems to have them.
The were some fantastic cars there as well as some truely hideous ones!

Absolutely spot on. Wouldn't you just love that as a daily?!
A guy in my town has a completely stock looking, but very clean mk1 Golf Gti with full G60 running gear.
He only want £2k for it as well.... sigh.

That's how ya do it!! Very nice - I agree about the clear indicator lenses though, and the silly baked bean can stuck to the back  My brother's Mk 3 is going a similar way - sleeper style. But getting hold of amber indicators is really hard. He has some now, and has binned the chavvy clear units. He doesn't have Cossie running gear though - a ZeeVH on twin 40's... should still shift some. I gotta show him the 1.3L badge on the back - pure class! |

That is very nice.... Needs some chrome rubbing strips, orange indicators and black bumpers to really set it off, as well as a stealth tail pipe As for the 4x4 into Mk3.............. Watch this space, for an even more unlikely sleeper Mk3 being built at the moment  |

Wooohoo that is seriously cool!!!! I'd love to take something like that out one night and consistently blitz Lancer GSRs/Evo's and WRX's and the like.....
Ratdat.... I have a Fast Fours magazine with a full feature on that 1200 coupe... it's one damn cool car, I think the feature was title "Forty Winks" alluding to the sleeperness of the thing!

Personally prefer it with the clears & the exhaust ;D It's just enough to tempt the Chavs with..... & as said, top marks for the build of it too  |

That is top notch,.. needs the exhaust and the clear indicators, its jsut enough to tempt the max power types. But even more fun to tempt those that think they know about cars and think clear indicators and big exhuast = chav and therefore idiot. People like us lot. Genius.
