That looks great, but I'm not sure how affective the roll cage would be if it ever got tested in anger.

I think it's a brush/tree guard not a roll cage. |

Speaking of escorts, I was at a garage, for a fuel line end for my dad, and they had a Red Mk2 escort Rs 1800 that had been cosworthed. The bloke said its been in storage for well over 10 years, we are bloody sick of it been in the work shop, as the owner used to work for them, but left it there.

They were on it when I bought it, I’ve also got the original wheels but I’ve left these on cos it makes it a bit different.

"minilite" style wheels were a massive add-on in period so don't look out of place IMO..........

Every classic ford would look boring if they were all the same, I have always wanted a classic ford, but my 306 is a babe of a car, i nearly did think about getting rid for another daily and have the defender as a toy. the 306 is too good of a car to go, and its been pure gold, my mate said you have more than your moneys worth out of that.  question is could i go back at another bank loan again for 7k Defender TD5 90 ---/--- Peugeot 306 HDI hatch back
