Escort For Nova?

[ianglanister]

I am just wondering if anyone on here has a nova project (3door0 they would swap for an escort? i am doing some work on a friends coach for him and as payment i am getting his ford escort. this car is R reg 1997 5 door in blue. It does have electric windows, central locking 1600 16V zetec. i was planning on keeping it and dropping a rs turbo engine in it but would rather get a nova if i can. if not will keep this and drop a big enigne in it.
would anyone be interested? Thanks

tax and mot run out at the end of the month

i have sent off for a new logbook
last sataday and itl take ages to come back, its a 1.4 16v sport with 95000ish miles(will confirm) it has a small hole in the spair wheel well, the engine is in good condition but it needs a thermostat and a radiator switch as i butchered it to stop it overheating befor i knew it was the thermostate, i think it could do with bottom ball joints, the bumper on the driveres side keeps poping off and i just ost interest, the axle is rusted so bad that the passenger side wheel has bent inwards at the top, the bonnet has a dent just above the passenger side light, the heater matrix is blocked also, all in all it does need some work but when its done itl be a cracking little car, but i have compleatly lost all inerest in corsas, and all i would do is sell the escort to my brother as he is looking for one, i shall take some pics of it tomorrow,(more recent) it has some opel manta wheels on it at the moment and i do have a set of advanti raceing alloys, if you would like to apply for a new logboo for it i will include both sets of allyos, some brand new vibe speekers that i have used once, a universal backbox (not fitted)

i would need a cash offer aswel as the corsa due to the work that needs doing. other wise id sell for 5-600 and go to buy the toyota celica 2L gt Im watching

[Welshy]

i have no money mate so i cant, good luck anyway mate

[ianglanister]

no worries mate thanks anyway but the escort is valued at just over 900quid

[Welshy]

corsa will be when its fixed lol, i just want a nova again

[ianglanister]

corsa private sale is 745
escort private sale is 1055

I would do a deal but it needs a fair bit of work and the escort doesnt need any. if this deal through ebay falls through may just stick to original plan and rs turbo it.

lol ye the only problem is, i used to work at car dealers hence why i can get any valuations and with working there i have noticed problems with changing engines i.e log books,insurance, finding a decnt engine etc etc
