A neighbour has a project he no longer has time for. It consists of Ford Escort cabriolet and 2.9 V6 engine. The engine was rebuilt 5000 miles ago and has had high lift cams fitted and other modifications. Also has a superchip. The project has been started and some of the fabrication has been done.
If this is of interest i will try and get some further information and photos.

i believe the V6 came out of an XR4i. This has not been fitted to the Escort yet although some trial fitting and cutting of the tunnel have been done. If you need more information i will ask the neighbour.Yes it will be rear wheel drive when installed.
