I could’ve used the floor pans in the VH and the trim around the grill , see it’s a manual gearbox too . Probably has other parts squashed that would’ve been useful too . Escort is a rare find nowadays too . Love the bush find videos, keep up the great work DJ , cheers 🍻
I found a MK1 and MK2 escort buried down at my old town landfill- still has a few of the ford badge letters- Also those cars and cool- I love working on smashed up cars- Pulling dents. Patching holes and welding in new metal is my thing.
that escort has tags, it's worth restoring in UK, everything available for it, hell, there's even 2 companies doing full shells over here now, + one even builds + registers brand new ones, you need to pay £100,000 for them mind...
Cool bush wrecks. The Escort isn't an RS2K as they were all 2ltr and had the "droop snoot" front grille. That one looks like a GL with 1.6 litre Kent engine
Out of interest and curiosity, who would you be buying it off? And how does the legal aspect of a car like that work out, I've always wondered to be honest
that MK2 escort would be awesome to see back on the road, Dan can help with the seats
That's pretty cool how the Corona was still so complete, and how it even still had it's battery!
Get a drone you might find more cheers.
That's a bloody good idea 💡
That Toyota wagon is awesome I can’t believe how complete it is

Always cool stuff you find in the bush. Around here in the rainforest, there ain't much left...

Love the Mk2 Escort.. it has a 1600 kent motor , 4 speed box. So many good parts.. It even has its brake booster too.

Hey DJ have you considered that some of the cars you find maybe tied to missing person cases?? Enjoying the content mate, keep it coming.
Never thought of that one and I see many of the same cars he sees in this area 🤔👍
Awesome episode DJ! You should definitely collect that HQ and put your LS1 in it!
Hey DJ great video, I would love to see you try and start that Corona Wagon and drive it out , it's so complete would make an awesome video to watch 👍
God that mk2 would definitely be repaired in uk 🇬🇧
Going into the Bush with 2 men u hardly know. If u start hearing didgeridoo playing... RUN!! 🤪🤪
That Val would make Chris from Mirabito Performance very upset.
Bit of old vid but I seen what you seen in the escort and then conflicted with the Toyota wagon. Would have to go take both .
They look like Monaro buckets in the hq, hounds tooth inserts
The Corona wagon has an 18R-C 2.0L.engine. The Escort has a Kent engine (1300 or 1600cc) so it's not an RS2000.

rt118 1976 -79 due to the shape of the bonnet 18rc engine those coronas were known for rusting
Good 👍
Hey DJ you should grab the K frame and torsion bars for your VG/ VF build and put a hemi in yours instead of the old speedway slant 6
The HQ buckets are worth good money. If they have the tilt forward lever on them worth alot more…
toyota 18r motor mate, I recall those escorts have spot welded panels
Toyota 200 wagon save that would make a good car for you mate
Yas you found me another escort well done dj 🏴👍😎 11:07

i used to race the old eskies.
Yep put a drone up will cover more ground easier
I reckon the intro clip is pretty good 👍
That Mark 2 is a four speed you said 5 speed hahahahaha

From what Service NSW told me, once you put registration on it, it's yours.
i feel like that corona should fire up also.. might need to incorporate some fire it up videos.. jump pack and fuel down the carb, hit the key.
Bro do you find any 2 holden utes haha
Yo I want to oon That car 🚗 it looks so cool 😎 looks like you can fix it looks like it still works
Corona is an 18R engine
U need a longer trailer so u can bring 2 cars home 😀
Go do a will it start on that Toyota and try and drive it home
dang that vh sucks that it was crushed , it would have had some useful parts
почему эти машины стоят десятилетиями в этой заброшенной местности?
он были угнаны и брошены?
или это местная традиция бросать машины в диких местах?
Shame about the esky, only the 1.6L. If it was in better shape would be worth saving.
I need some LJ torana coupe gutter mouldings if you can get em.
Good luck with the unicorn poo 😂
18R Toyota had the worst timing chains
non aircon mode;
Hi
hq is such an ugly car.ive never been able to understand why people like them.even the shape of the dash looks terrible.
