You can have your V12's V8's V6's for exhaust rumbles but NOTHING beats a 4 cyl with twin webers. What a sound !!! Envious ofg the car and your talents building it
I and a fair few friends would def buy a few raffle tickets for this awesome car. Love it,always been a fan of the MK1 escort.The Blue/white would match my 1991 GSXR1100,ive got twin Dellortos(similar to webbers) on my beach buggy as well,do sound nice. Love this channel.£10 per ticket would be a good price.
Thanks for the content lads, my brother had a yellow escort with a black vinyl roof, think it was a mk1 with cibie? fog lamps. I've been dreaming a bit watching your vids..
I think that’s a great idea to raffle the Escort. It’ll give someone a chance to own a fantastic car that a lot of us can no longer afford to go out and buy. Thanks guys.
Recently found you guys and have been binging on your videos while recovering from Covid (really helped take my mind off the pain) Got to say I love your work and look forward to what ever you do in the future. Your Mini camper van and mk1 escort videos are fantastic.
I could certainly live with driving that around! What a mega car! A raffle would be great. Yes, the longer format videos are always good. Looking forward to the next Mk1! My neighbours growing up had a brown Mk1 and a purple Mk1 when they were the new model. Lovely looking car.
Very Nice. I had a 1760cc Mk2 with forest arches in the late 80's that I absolutely loved even though it was rusting away underneath. Used to give Sierra Cosworths a run for their money on the right road!
I'd buy a ticket or three! Not sure you'd let me take it back to New Zealand though! 😂 good to see the road test, looked and sounded great! Miss the English countryside. Great vid, thanks guys, look forward to some more.
Good to see you back on my desktop screen. Just goes to show you that a old car with a decent engine and gear box with none of the crap our modern cars now come with can get done the road with less HP. That thing is quicker then my B8 Passat GT, Bet it it much more fun to drive too. Every time I see the Orange Focus if forget that it is a donor car for the mk 2 Escort custom build. Looking forward to the next build series. We just know that it will be Epic.
Hello Lads, enjoying the videos again as you have reverted to once a week format. Great idea for the raffle on both the Mk1 and 2 (I hope) Escorts. Just let us know how to buy them! Keep up the good work Cheers Neil from Aberdeen.
Great series where we can see trash becoming gold. My dad had an Escort 1300GT when I was a kid, and it had rust already being only 6 or 7 years old, so I can understand how they manage to get the way yours was.
this is my favourite car ever. my dad had one when i was a kid. i was meant to go to bed 2.5 hours ago but i had to watch 9 episodes tonight. love this car.
100% for the raffle I would have ago love your videos and would honestly say if they were an hour long it probably wouldn’t be long enough keep up the great work lads 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Great video and car you will have to ease off when The power when cornering and roundabouts the Limited slip Diff makes them tail happy it sounds amazing
YES YES YES !!!!!! Defo do the raffle Paul, Maybe I'll be the lucky winner, I cannot envisage me ever owning such a fantastic example, it's iconic and happens to be my favourite Ford. You and Keith must give yourselves a massive pat on the back as you do turn out some amazing motors. I love the channel guys you defo have a lifelong subscriber in me, Cheers !!!! 👍🚘👍🚘👍🚘👍
You did a mega job with this car. I couldn't bring myself to sell it. And using it in normal everyday life is actually the best thing you can do with such a great car. Greetings to you from Germany
Here we go fellas looking forward to this you have built many top quality cars this being one of them seen it in the flesh it’s stunning a credit to you both 🇬🇧👏👏👏👏👏
Great video mate. As far as raffling goes, I'd look into the legalities first. I was going to raffle my Triton bike but there is a law preventing it unless it's for charity purposes. May be worth checking it out. I could be wrong, but could save you some grief! Beautiful car, and a lot of us would love to own it.
@@keithoddautos5044 great! I'll be buying a ticket if you do it Keith. By the way, I've loved every video you have put out, and the excellent work you guys do there! I've been in the bodywork industry for over forty years but had to retire due to health. Panel work & then paint side of it all, so I know & appreciate exactly how much time, effort & skill goes into restorations. Again, great work & videos.
Hi Really enjoyed your rebuild and the end result of a stunning Mk 1. Have own many fords,1600e/3 Litre capris/Xr2s but never an Escort. The Mk1 RS always in my opinion looked the more muscle car of the range. If you were to raffle it I would by a hundred tickets. Looking forward to watching more. 👍🏿
Omg totally stunning in every way like so many other peeps I saw the restoration of your beautiful MK1 escort from start to finish and absolutely loved it thank you so much your craftsmanship is perfection a total credit to both of you ♥️🤩 a raffle is a brilliant idea I'm up for that someone is going to win an awesome car you guys rock 👍👍👍👍👍👍
Lovely series, this! Been watching all episodes, trying to find motivation to start with one of my own: a 1300 GT which has, sadly, been totally neglected, battered and beaten. It was on it's way to the scrapyard - but hopefully I'll be able to bring it back!
Nice video fella's. Thought you might have let Keef in the passenger seat 😂 nice to see the escort running sweet. I agree to the raffle idea if you can part with it. I'm already lined up to loose the Nova raffle 😁 nice to see your collaboration to Dream car. Been playing for years now.
I would love that car. I had a Mk2 4 door back in early 90s but always preferred the shape of the 2 door Mk1(especially with the forest arches). The gold minilites and the blue and white stripes are awesome. I'd personally remove the chin spoiler as I feel it doesn't need it but otherwise what a build.
I gotta draggy in the future if you ever wanna use it can have the 0-60 filmed and timing on screen at same time, i would say 100-200 kmph as well but i don't think you've got anything that does that ;)
Funnily enough I did suggest a raffle in one of the early videos. A million percent I’ll get tickets for this beautiful looking AND sounding escort. A real credit to you and Keith’s craftsmanship ❤️ Ps. The 1600 Sport too ❤️❤️
Yep definitely a raffle coz a lot of people probably wouldn't be able to buy a mk1 of this speck these days I know I wouldn't or even have one built Great videos from you always worth watching which ever way you do them but going back the way you do them on a Tuesday night is the best one for myself tbh When is the mk2 St starting again lads 👍 YOU GOT TO BE IN IT TO WIN IT
@@keithoddautos5044 Keith it's not just the parts cost don't forget labour costs electricity and all the other day to day costs 🧐👍great work anyway I will still be watching when the mk2 st build arrives 😀
That is a stonking Mk 1, great sound going up the road and through the gears. Got to say it sounds a bit like my Dads old Alfa Giulia (circ1971) that had twin webbers on it and it went like stink! Big big thumbs up for some tickets if you raffle it. Oh and by the way you are both forgiven for the long wait time for this video. 👍👍👍👍
You can have your V12's V8's V6's for exhaust rumbles but NOTHING beats a 4 cyl with twin webers. What a sound !!! Envious ofg the car and your talents building it
Watching this while by the pool in turkey. Happy days. 100% I’ll buy a bunch of tickets. Fords all day everyday
Raffles are a great way of finding the channel. Go for it.
Good to see you again, thought you'd run away. Who wouldn't want to win that car. And this is from a geezer who is not a Ford fan by any means.
Count me in , I’d have some tickets, I loved all my mk1 s good to see ya back on here again
Brilliant Video, great to see you posting again!
So glad you are back .
I and a fair few friends would def buy a few raffle tickets for this awesome car.

@@keithoddautos5044 Nice one Keith,stay safe mate.
Hi guys fantastic idea i would deffo buy a few tickets and thanks for allowing us to have a chance at winnig it 👍👍👍
Ive always loved escorts for year done some motorsport in the past i love the idea of a raffle brilliant idea
Sounds tasty, also nice from the point of view of what you dont hear ie rattles, youve built a lovely Mk1 there!
Thanks for the content lads, my brother had a yellow escort with a black vinyl roof, think it was a mk1 with cibie? fog lamps. I've been dreaming a bit watching your vids..
Mmm. I wonder how much to freight my win back to Tasmania, Australia … . Maybe I could do a little tour around Europe before I bring it home.
Hello chaps, love the idea of a raffle. I’d buy a few tickets! Hope you’re both keeping well 👍
Would love to win this! Fab looking motor. Also that bit of road is one of my favourites!!
This car is stunning it’s just gets better and better every time I see it you lads a genius’s restoring this
Fantastic news.... id gladly buy a few tickets....
Good to have you back.. mk1 looks and sounds awesome. Back to something to look forward to on a Tuesday night again..😜
Good to see you back.
Never had a MK1, so will definitely buy a ticket. Plus, the sound of Webbers gives me a bit of a twitch... 😁
Mate,what a beautiful thing. Was just with the channel for Escort stuff really.Enjoyed the build the whole way through. Cheers from Oz👍.
at last the road test ,a gr8 build now a epic vid
Count me in for a few tickets - I love this build
I think that’s a great idea to raffle the Escort. It’ll give someone a chance to own a fantastic car that a lot of us can no longer afford to go out and buy.
Thanks guys.
My eye will be peeled to grab a few raffle tickets after seeing the escort at the nec I haven't stopped drooling over it since 👍👍👍
It’s a real nice looking motor 😍
That’s outstanding, the noise the car, and the big grin on your face. Raffle sounds like great idea!
I think that's a great idea. Like you say, it gives someone a chance to own it who would never be able to afford one due to their current value.
Raffle is a great idea defo buy tickets. Love the mk1 exited to see the new one!!!!!!
Welcome back, great video, sounds great, love the idea of an auction it will go to a proper enthusiast, looking forward to what you do next
Can't beat the noise of weber carbs. My mini has a single 45, I'd buy a few tickets for a raffle.
I built an Escort Mexico replica with an overhead cam 1600 motor 40 years ago. Was one of the coolest cars I've owned.
You could own another 🤞
@@ODDAutos I live in New Zealand so postage would cost me a small fortune.
Recently found you guys and have been binging on your videos while recovering from Covid (really helped take my mind off the pain)
Got to say I love your work and look forward to what ever you do in the future.
Your Mini camper van and mk1 escort videos are fantastic.
Thanks Ian, glad you liked the videos buddy. Hope you feel better soon too, take care 👍
Would love to own this raffle is a brilliant idea . Love the content of your channel
Awesome little car that for sure! I would love to win that little beast!
Just love that car and the sound of the twin webbers is something you can’t ignore👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
There’s no better sound 😍
The mk1 & the mk2...the most sexiest of escorts,true story...
Great idea , raffles the best , deffo be up for that👍
Great show, I do miss the twin webers roaring on flat chat days. That mk1 came up sweet , might buy a ticket or two 😜

May be worth checking it out. I could be wrong, but could save you some grief!

Where/when can I buy tickets?
Great video again ,yes definitely raffle the escort 👍
Cool cheers Stephen 👍👍
