I dont think the car is 1967   It has oval side lights like mine did these were on the 1962 / 63 / 64................i may be wrong its been several years since i messed on with classic motors  

The purist are going to hate me but Put a real engine in it and lowered on some nice alloys and just a clear lacquer over the existing paint and you would have a very distinctive and desirable motor

The costs can soon take off and go sky high.

 

I do Lambrettas and the cash involved is mental, any restoration can be the same. Early ford parts are starting to get expensive but to be honest Jim, I`d rather put the money into that car as into a pension fund.

 

 

Whats the story with the escort ?

Iv got a chance of buying this it's been in garage for year how much does it cost to restore something like this image_35.jpegimage_36.jpeg

cant really tell from your piccys, but looking at the quarter bumpers and the cheese grater air filter, I,m guessing it may be a gt model if so the value is much higher, and even higher again if it's a two door model, if it's a basic four door, it will be hard to restore to a decent level, without spending more than it's worth, if you have found a 2door gt it's worth a fortune as it stands

If it was an old Lotus one... well worth doing
