Cosworth 4 spoke steering wheel with mk4 escort boss.
Stripped out rear.


mechanical:
I swapped the original 1300 engine for a 1600 xr2 engine, the 1300 is a poor engine so I put the 1600 in for a bit more drivability and to be able to keep up with traffic on the motorways.
1600 late cvh, xr2 gearbox
Referbed tldm carb, k&n induction
Ashley 4 branch manifold.
