Wanted: Mk3 or Mk4 Escort rear seat hinges (from seat base)

[Mystery Machine]

Hi guys,

If anyone is breaking a Mk3 or Mk4 Escort, I'd be very interested in buying the pair of hinges from the base of the back seat. These just unbolt from both the floorpan and also the seat base itself - and I can't imagine there's a big demand for them?

If you do have a pair, please let me know?

Thanks.

I have a feeling I might have a pair of these. Definately came across the central backrest hinge when I was sorting out my lockup. I think the base hinges could possibly be in a box of spares I've yet to sort through. I'll have a rummage in the next couple of days and report my findings

Many thanks.

I'll definitely take them please, if you do have them? Thank you.

If foldy doesn't have them I'll yank them off the mk4 in the garage. Do you need any other bits?

That would be great, thanks.

Is yours a 5dr? If so, I'd also be interested in the lower, outer window rubbers/scrapers if they are in good condition? Mine are a bit corroded and starting to bubble on the ends.

Thanks again.

Yep 5dr in diamond white. I'll have a look for you when i'm next down at the workshop. Let me know if you need anything else as it's getting scraped. Interior is in great condition.

Many thanks Dude, I'll definitely take the seat hinges please, and also all of the window scrapers if they aren't too bad? (do you know the bits I mean?)

Other than that I can't really think of anything that'll be of use?

Thanks again.

[edit] Actually - now I think of it, if the Ford badge on the front is in good condition, I could happily take that off your hands too please. Beer tokens awaiting.

Not looking promising so far, only finding the rest of the backrest hinges
Sounds like bodgemonkey's going to sort you out though

HK Breakers in Rhosllanerchrugog Clwyd is you friend, they have about 7 mk4 Escorts in.

Now that's a mouthful, and not made up either!
