1977 Ford Escort Mexico Mk2. Car has been with the same family for the last 16 years until us getting it. Its a genuine Mexico which starts runs and drives and comes with a current MOT, Its a decent useable example but by no means a show car or matching numbers concours example. We have the V5 and a few receipts for work done but not a huge amount of history.

Body - Early Mk2 shell with the big strut top holes. Has all the right brackets in the right places which look original. Solid car underneath and comes with a current MOT. Paintwork is decent and the car still presents well with no major damage or dings. Its had a few period repairs in spare wheel wells and floors in the past. Car has a Webasto roof fitted which works Ok and doesnt leak. Also had additional period security locks fitted on rear quarters. Good FORD grille, 4 cibie spotlights, good quarter bumpers. Underbonnet is the area that would probably benefit most from a tidy up. Had repairs in past on wing rails and bulkhead area and evidence of paint touch ups.

Mechanics - Car has been upgraded to a 2.0 at some point running a Lynx manifold with single Weber 40 carb. It starts and runs well and was last used properly for a wedding last year. Prior to that it hadnt had a lot of use over the last 10 years. Still running its original 4 speed box. Clutch and brakes are good although theres a bit of fluctuation in the brake pedal, suggesting a warped disc maybe.

Interior - Correct white needle Rs clocks which all work. Good dash top, original uncut door cards. Good headlining. seats are original but drivers side bolster needs a repair as seen in pics. Period 8 ball gearknob....

Wheels - 5 x Mexico deep dish steels with good Yokohama A539 Tyres. One centre cap is missing.

Tidy useable old car. If you want a show winner remember they are nearly double the cost of this one. You are welcome to come and see the car. We have a ramp so you can look underneath. Delivery can be arranged if required. Please ask for a quote.

Any questions please ask or call us.

Thanks for looking
