Car: Ford Escort Cabriolet MK3
Colour: Red

History:
Converted for a friend of mines wife
This was one of the last MK3 escort cabriolets, only the front end differed on the newer MK4's, so we replaced all the front end bits with later MK4 bits, this included the wings, bonnet and scuttle panel. Then a complete respray sorted out any other dents and dings and allowed us too remove the door locks. The addition of the later bumpers made the transformation complete

Thoughts:
Build quality was no where near as good as BMW's

 

Repairs to slam panel also needed painting

 

Door Locks welded over and filled smooth

 

Secondhand bonnet was also red, this saved painting the underside

 

Various dings and scrapes needed attention

 

The picture does not do this car justice
