Ford Escort Mk1 4 door 1970 2.0 Pinto, Tax Free, Twin Carb, Not Cortina Capri for sale

Current customer rating: current rating for this car(2.25) based on 495 votes
Hello and welcome to the sale of this Ford Escort Mk1.
It's a 1970 Escort 1300 4 door. it was fully restored a few years ago by a previous owner along with many modifications
Structurally it's in fantastic condition. the floor pan is solid. however unfortunately the bodywork is starting to show its age. Apart from the few bits of rust shown in the pictures. the paint is in fantastic condition. if you take a step back it looks fantastic and never fails to turn heads.
Engine Spec List
2. 0 8v Pinto EngineTwin 45 Weber CarbsPiper High Lift CamKent Vernier PulleyBig Valve Gasket SetPorted Cylinder Head4 Branch Exhaust ManifoldFull Straight Through Ashley ExhaustFacet Electronic Fuel Pump and Fuel Pressure RegulatorThe car has been rolling road tuned by Tom at Wilfield Motors. It currently runs at around 130hp. this makes for a very nippy drive seeing how light the car is.
This 2. 0 Pinto engine is bolted to a 5 Speed Manuel Type 9 gearbox
The car is also fitted with Capri front struts along with front disc brakes to handle the power.
The car is believed to be lowered 40mm. it looks great with the (I believe) Mk1 Capri Revolution Alloys and Pirelli tyres.  
The car is Taxed and MOTed. however the Tax doesn't really matter about the tax as its tax exempt. The MOT I believe is until August/September but I will have to confirm. the last MOT it sailed through with No Advisories!
The interior has just had brand new carpets and sound deadening fitted. hence the pictures. and there are black leather type seats. one has a small cut. but are in remarkable condition.
The car is still registered as a 1. 3.
The private plate. that reads Ellie J. on its own has been valued at over £7000.
The bad pointsThere really aren't that many. the bodywork is starting to rust. but is still in great condition. The rev counter doesn't work. and the fuel gauge doesn't work.
The car is in Newport. South Wales.
Viewing is advised
I think that's everything but if you have any questions at all let me know and I will try my best to help.
Thanks for looking
RegardsChris
