Whay money for fuel or money for the truck itself?

If you need a taxi ride down I'm sure I can come pick you up and get it sorted well untill you could hack the ride of a 4x4!

I thought that it was priced way too high considering it was missing the engine and rims, so what did you get rich???

Looking like its progessing matey and at least that floor looks solid. I took the carpet out of mine today to replace it with a black item..... took a quick peak under the underlay and quickly put it back down, it was too painful.

f**k, sorry to hear that matey

i'm lucky cos the 2 previous owners to me both kept the car in a heated garage, so that why my body work and chassis is so fudgekin clean...

are you changing the black sill trims by any chance too?? i'm putting black MK3 carpet in mine, but want the sill trims to match, tried fitting MK3.5 trims but they dont fit

[rich_frst]

UPDATE 1:

1ST DONOR CAR..

saw this MK1 onion on a few forums and wanted it straight away for parts for the pick... its perfect.. it has leccy windows, central locking, leccy mirrors.. plus lots of other bits i want

went with my dad to pick it up and bring her home..

and here she is sitting hehind my fiesta turbo

[Smo]

The body looks really good on that Orion! Please tell me it's not, or I'll be wanting that

That pick up looks soooooooo funky though, can't beat the MK3 Escort shape

[rich_frst]

got it from lennie... he's your side of the water

[MarkRS2K]

love the way you blank out the rims on the frst

UPDATE 2:

PICK UP GETS STRIPPED :

gave the orders on friday night for my cousin to take a closer look at a few things on the pick up... here's what un-folded...

her she is at the start of the day..

and under the bonnet..

inside the cab

some work to do here


out in the open




some pics of the bed... more work



a few more shots

from behind

love the cab rear window...

not a good shot of the head lining

another shot the window

from the front

looking at the bed

he said there was alot of stuff in the bed

everything in this water tank can from it

rear quarters are not the right length.. and need to be made bigger

arches dont fit properly


dont like the bumper..


at this point i got a phone call and an email with all the pics from above...

so told him to take the bumper off


looks alot better

cab starting to empty


on closer inspection with the bodykit not fitting he wanted to pull the kit off...

which i'm glad he did cos it hides alot

rotten sills..

and rear arch isn't to clever either..

was gutted when he phoned me to tell me the above, but s**t happens, so now we decided to obviously pull all the kit off and start from scratch to see what i have....


and guess what.. bodykit hide more rotten sills


dash out and loom closely behind


lights out, quarters off..

front bib off

all of the loom out

one escort bantam pick up loom...


and thats how far he got... last few pictures tell a different story from the first, were the pick up only needed 'finishing off'...

nevermind.. i'm determined to make this pick up perfect from top to bottom!! everything done properly as it should've been..

wish i could be there to help, but my back is improving, so hopefully soon i'll be there to help..

hope you like the updates...

cheers for looking, rich
