Well, I've been incredibly lax with this thread, but to be honest not a lot has happened.... Started buying parts ready to convert to RS2000 I4 power, but unfortunately I have been seduced by the dark side of the force as represented by a certain Mr Claymore, resident nutter of this very parish!!! Whilst I'm not going to be building a twin engined, 4WD mentalist creation, I have decided to go with compound charged Volvo power!!! With RWD for fun!! I will be searching you out at the Gathering Mr C, want to pick your brains for a little info if that's ok with you?? Meantime, now that this car isn't gonna be ready for RRG (I don't work that fast unfortunately, plus there's the small matter of work & life commitments etc) I need another car to go in, as I don't feel like using my Alfa 155, even though I absolutely love the car... Look out for a new thread from me regarding a black XR2i purchased a month ago...I know, I'm bloody hopeless, should have been onto this much quicker.... Soon......

That drivers seat has seen better days. I remember when mk3's come best seem to be in terracotta.

Would you sell a car of the year sticker? Will pay very good money if original.

I always loved this shape of escort and had no idea why I reckon they'd make a pretty badass sleeper

With regards to the CotY sticker can a replica be made using the original as a scan/template?!
With regards to the Escort, this is a gem of a car...!

i had a terracotta coloured one, my first car, a 1.3L 3 dr with RS turbo doglegs and 1600i spoiler kit. loved it! VV carb was rubbish, i had to learn to left foot brake to keep the engine running! came home one day and my dad had scrapped it because i had bought another car and had pushed the escort to the entry, i have never let him forget. good luck with this, love the mk3/4 shapes.

I've got a car of the year 1981 sticker which I bought from eBay, but its different than yours, it looks more modern, I would love a propper replica one for my old girl.
