19?? Mk2 Escort Screamer "In Primer"

[todaysyouth18]

Just a small update. due to lovely weather my car is now in primer. not long now, possibly 3 or 4 weeks before MOT time ( I can hear my dad laughing). it will happen!!!! engine to go in this weekend as I got my tarty bits like burton rocker cover and samco hose kit, oh and a k&n air filter. just to make it look tidy. any way here is a before pic when it was high and the pics after are with the 2" lowering blocks in. it does hav springs in the front too but there is no engine thus the reason it looks high ENJOY

That's really smart, good to see it in primer
Rmad's going to tell you off for starting a new thread and not putting the updates in your origional thread though!!

Are you gonna roll it in primer or try and fit the painting in before the MOT?

just a few pics showing the car a bit better in paint. looks awesome in satin black. got the full ashley exhaust system on and the car is now running wooooooooo. there a ball bearing missing out the carb so she doesn't rev up unless it's on full choke. sounds wicked for an 1100cc. haha. went to put the screen in and it's for a mk1, another great ebay find. luckily the buyer is giving me a brand new one and paying for everything to get sent back and re-funding me the money as the mk2 screen is cheaper!!! NICE!!! got my reacaro seats aswell. they hav rips in but i'm not bothered. if i wanted it perfect i would hav had it sent away to be sprayed and had the seats re-trimmed for £750 thats just wrong. i would rather hav my mum do it. haha. hoping for an m.o.t in 2 weeks if that.

gotta be one of the koolest cars for an 18 year old to be smokin about it rather happy with myself to be honest
