I couldn't half do with that interior though.

 That thing's rotten, by the looks of it it's been sitting outside for years surrounded by grass and nettles with no glass or doors, have a look at the floor pan and inner sills, even the wood surround dash has disintegrated so imagine what the rest of the inside will be like.  It appears to have a 5 speed box which will be the only thing of much value on it.  The interior might be worth something but along the back of the rear seat doesn't look to be too good so it's probably rotten as well.  Anyone who pays £3500 is barking mad but going by the prices some of the other scrap on Ebay is fetching just now somebody probably will pay it .

Still got the silver 2.0s then have you.

[phorbiuz 36]

Yep.

 

Still a stripped shell on an a-frame.  I've had big problems finding a painter in the last couple of years - everyone seems to want quick jobs not classic motors.  Did find someone excellent but he's so unreliable I was waiting over a year to go through it with him.  Currently got my Sierra with another another place to test what they're like.  No point in getting the S dipped until I know I have a good painter lined up.

There is a very well respected painter called Gavin Pink down south . I don't know him but he does a lot of very expensive cars and more workman like stuff as well . I think he is doing a mk1 Escort at the moment  . I haven't met or used him for anything but I have seen nothing but good comments about him . He also runs courses for prep and painting .
