Log Book

This very special Ford Escort Mk I is not only a super-competitive track car but absolutely looks the part as well. Log booked for 3J Improved Production, the Escort was built by its current owner and first hit the track in 2007. Under the bonnet is a 2.0L Yager Performance built Duratec engine mated to a brand new Quaife heavy duty six speed sequential gearbox. The Escort runs a Motec M84ECU as well as a Motel CDL dash, displaying all the necessary data to the driver.

The powerplant has been built for speed and reliability, with EFI Hardware throttle bodies, ceramic coated Simpson Headers, Roger Carroll dry sump pan and Barnes three stage pump. The drivetrain has been strengthened considerably, thanks to a four inch PowerTrain dual plate clutch and Race Products cambered Hilux differential housing. An adjustable Watts Link (also from Race Products) combined with MCA gold shocks front and rear ensure that the Escort handles perfectly and braking is also taken care of via Skyline 4 piston (front) and 2 piston (rear) calipers.
A range of spare parts is included with the sale, including three diff centres (two with Harrop limited slip diff) as well as two sets of 15x8 wheels (one set running Hoosier slicks, the other with Yokohama A050 rubber).

The car presents in excellent condition throughout and is a testament to its owner. It has been campaigned at many motorsport venues not only throughout Queensland but also in Darwin and Philip Island in Victoria. Suffice to say, this is a reluctant sale however due to the purchase of a historic sports sedan, the Escort is now being offered for sale to its next custodian. It is in “ready to race” condition and would make for a very competent circuit car in the right hands.

The Escort is available for inspection in Swan Bay NSW, just outside of Lismore.

Would consider swap/trade/part payment for 50's,60's,70's road car
