Ford Escort mk2 - Changing chassis arms
@ClassicCarRestorerIreland
Introduction into our Ford Escort MK2 project.
The Ford Escort is a small family car that was manufactured by Ford of Europe from 1968 until 2000. In total there were six generations, spread across three basic platforms: the original, rear-wheel-drive Mk.1/Mk.2 (1968-1980), the "Erika" front-wheel-drive Mk.3/Mk.4 (1980-1992), and the final CE-14 Mk.5/Mk.6 (1990-2002) version.
The Escort was frequently the best selling car in Britain during the 1980s and 1990s. A total of more than 4.1 million Escorts of all generations were sold there over a period of 33 years.
And one is in our Workshop!

    @bobfrankish8883 7 місяців тому

    Car is coming along nicely. I understand you wanting to get some rigidity back by fitting the sills, but in my experience, you've taken a bit of a gamble fitting aftermarket sills without hanging the doors first. Having said that, they look pretty decent quality so you may be OK.

      Left door has to be sorted and few bits on body. We start to record videos almost after all welding is done, this is good sugestion to make some about rest of metal work. Boot lid is not done, we will try to record how we make inner frame, realy slow and demanding proces, - combination of svager, shrinker/strecher, Ewheel, etc. Than we can talk about primer :)) This was saturday job last 2 years, sort of deal with car owner. Workshop is full of much bigger and way demanding cars that we are on full time job.. but it looks like folks just like Anglia more, cause many of them have that budget car in mens shed, working on it here and there. Stay with us, we will try the best. Thanks on comment.

      Yes and no...if cleaned(no rust indication) sanded and de greased yes...otherwise no...filler is hygroscopic so likes to soak in,as long is indoors all good...welds are more problematic if left in bear metal without any protection on them they tend to rust in micro crack and holes and covered with filler create problem later on...usually have on hand zinc primer or something to cover your work keeping in mind cleaned,sanded,degreased
