Ford Escort Mk1

S10 • E2 Feb 26, 2013 45mThe Ford Escort Mk1 might not be red and Italian but it’s a performance car icon.

The car he finds is a great as a base, and Mike wants to gently customise the Mk 1, to give it a compassionate retro refit, improving the handing and breaking but to also spruce up the face of a much love 70’s classic.
