Did the van make it to MITP....?
I ended up getting drunk the night before so didnt actually make it to the show.

Just read the whole thread, wonderful how you've bought this van back from the brink of destruction. Great choice of colour, looks beautiful.

Also my mk2 escort decided to go pop!! Apparently the 1300 couldn't cope with the abuse of drifts and burnout and pooped a piston.
So I've pulled the engine on that and fitted a rebuilt 1600 with fast road cam and twin choke webber. So haven't done much on the van! Until today.
I took her out and into day light first time for a few weeks.
Gave the unit a good tidy up and then stuck her back away until tomorrow.
Tomorrow I want to drive her. Will be the first time I've driven her in 2 years!!
Pic of her today....my new favorite pic of her

Few bits if the escort

The 1600 getting built up

Sump fitted


Engine in!

She's now running. Need to order a new rad and matrix Monday, should be back out next week.
Just want my van finished and other things keep getting in the way !!
More updates tomorrow.
Also guys thanks for all the compliments gives me drive to get her done!!
