[veilside z]

Its looking fantastic buddy. B)

[grahamc]

Some progress on the escort

There will be a few other colours.... black on the tyres, silver on the bumpers and the go-faster stripes

[grahamc]

Just waiting for a windscreen and headlining and then stage 1 (the exterior is completed)......... stage 2 which is the electrics and the finer things like fuel and brake lines, interior and so forth will be started soon hoping for some photos by the end of the week.

[grahamc]

Headlining has finally arrived, so will be dropped off tomorrow and then the glass can all go back in. Decals going on as well so car is nearly finished, from the exterior point of views....... although saying that, I still need bumpers and wheels

Went down and had a look at the car today.... love it!!! Headlining is in and the glass will be in early next week. I really like the colour and how the castrol stripes

 

 

 

[Keyser]

Brings back some memories s well

[grahamc]

And windows in

 

 

 

[grahamc]

Been a while since I updated, but this is progressing.... new wiring loom has gone in and just finishing off the finally pieces

 

New dash, before it was touched up

 

Some new wheels, bit dusty

 

Some new rear lights

[Paul K]

Glad you managed to get a 6 clock dash for it....much more original (that big single never looked quite right)

 

I had a Mk1 1300GT back in early 80's...much modified and much fun!!

[veilside z]

Lovely B)

[grahamc]

Really hoping for this to be done by end of June.... just waiting for the new loom to be done and then we can progress with putting it back together.

[grahamc]

really pushing for it to be road legal by the end of the month looking forward to it!! Sadly I will only be able to keep it for a short while before it goes up for sale.... living in London with 1 car is tough, but I want to keep the 240z so this will have to go

[grahamc]

Not a great amount of photos, but the car is progressing. All the little bits are being done, new wiring loom, etc. She has now been lowered and is standard on some nice wheels

 

[veilside z]

WOW what a stunner B)

[R35LEE]

Magic that! I'd love one of these but probably couldn't afford one now. Let us know when it goes up for sale, you never know....

[RS8055]

Some news.... VAT has been paid and I am arranging collection for Thursday being delivered to Sly (who is going to service and MOT) and I will be there on Saturday afternoon to have a look at them

 

Doubt they will be ready to drive, especially on the road, but things are progressing!

 

Out of interest, how long were these at Sly's? I didn't realize it was forum member until just now. I drove over to Sly's for a service and while I was waiting, stumbled across these two parked up the side of the building. They looked lovely in person!
