That was my car, I bypassed the hedgehog resistor because it ran the condensate dryer all night and killed the battery. Those cheap eBay ones have a bad rep so I fitted that manual control. The air con compressor packed up a couple of years ago, you will need to change it because the climate control won't go below 16° . The Speedo works off the rear left wheel sensor. Impressive work so far, there is no way Andy would have the patience to do that for the ambulance.
🤣 Andy said it would be a while before it happened,, to be fair he was going to buy a standalone loom,, I wanted to understand the wiring etc,, I had a feeling there would be some issues with the air conditioning so appreciate the comment… I will order one up before I fit it all, 👍
I appreciate the question and I will be explaining the reasoning in an upcoming video,, but basically love the style of the transit,, But it’s far too noisy for my liking and it won’t do more than 40mph over saddleworth,, m62 motorway which is plain dangerous to me.. I could add a turbo but I love a challenge and wanted air conditioning added

Hi Nick interesting conversion,is the Escort still happening not seen a video on it for months,keep up the great conversions.
Been on it,, videos will be out very soon,, thanks for the support

i used to own transit smiley S295VOG
Be cool to see how you add climate control to the transit. I've got a Mk4 transit LHD motorhome love it apart from the lack of power steering 😂
Full fitting will be in the series 👍
well committed i tell you that
good luck with swap mate.know where i am if you need me
Really appreciate it pal
I spy the escort ;)
Video coming soon 👍🏻
I don't understand why you would want to do this conversion to a Transit. (honest question).

Thanks. Will keep an eye out for that.@@NicksGarageUk
