[@shamlordloxley8959]

Awesome

[@lummy321]

Stunning work lads 👑👑👑👑❤️❤️❤️❤️ #Blessed

[@Turb0esky]

The 1.6l engine dramas are a blessing from the gods. The subscribers want to see a YB cosworth in its place. Well I do anyway 😂

[@nestorarciaga9600]

Bravissimo

[@davidprocter3578]

without giving it any real thought a stuck inlet valve on number two. But hey great job on the tin work, interior pretty tasty too.

[@psk5746]

Looks wonderful. I think you might have forgotten to install the plastic sheet behind the interior door trims. Critical for damp and water control so the trim does not root and cause door frame rust

[@chrisc9406]

Finally there is justification to fit a PINTO engine. Roll on the Mini Mk1 project ...

[@jordan-mcc]

Quality looks ace

[@padillon9]

thank you, awesome work .

[@ConemantheBarbarian]

She's a baby-doll! Fine job!

[@richardgoodge7666]

Top work gents very nice

[@zeeliejo]

Hi there from down under in South Africa. You guys are the best. I absolutely love a Mark I. The best off-course is the Mexico. But this one looks the part. I bought myself a Ford F-250 to rebuilt, but after the tearing down part, I lost interest and just sold it. But you guys have the strength to go through with it. I salute you and will keep on watching your great episodes.

[@orlandostead8703]

Stunning absolutley stunning!!!!!

[@JWxUK]

Looks like a fast and furious vibe

[@DM-mk7rs]

It came out so good

[@johndawson221]

See you Saturday 👍

[@christopherdoherty9274]

Great built would love to see that colour in the flesh was popping on the video. The engine will get sorted hopefully something simple.

[@hugger3374]

Mega build lads stunning mk1 👌👌.

[@samperras]

Great show boys Enjoyed it so much, Pitty about the donk, See you next time💙

[@Simcadepro]

if its was me pretty as it can be, that head would be off in 20min, check the gasket cracks, check faulty springs or seeping valve. would doubt anything wrong with bottom end as there no smoke coming from the exhaust can only be cylinder head that needs checking. imagine taking a motor out 7 times in day just because the engineer forgot to replace my dial pins on the block which cause the starter not to line up, it kept slipping until i noticed the gearbox had a slight tilt fitted them dial and boom sorted. love my car nothing can comes close to the feeling of a mk1 escort quick and raw with best tunes coming from under the hood. well done gents amazing work and done to perfection better than factory. i restored 3 escorts and its not and easy job nor fun at time proper hard work, sweat and patience

[@stephenpepper5619]

OMG AWESOME WELL DONE

[@stephenthatcher6883]

The bees knees boys I'm jealous

[@paulharrison3298]

That’s too nice to sell, she’s a beauty 🥰

[@katluke]

Some effort gone into that car in such a short time,just a shame that the engine that was out of your hands has let you down. The end result and and attention to detail is spot on .

[@johnrowland9369]

Guy’s I love the mk1 escorts and watching you build this replacing almost every piece of steel is amazing it should be registered as a new car like the guy’s from mst who have been building these and the mk2 registering them as a new car.It’s a quality build for a quality car great work lad’s

[@paulearnshaw2789]

Brilliant 😎👍

[@philiprush5754]

Beautiful car guys hell of a job I'm very jealous

[@nickwhitney6051]

[@philtucker1224]

[@rob.christie1272]

Beaut job fella's, it turned our really nice. Lets have an early Vauxhall next !

[@melflesser3549]

Well done guys . Shame about the engine but keep us updated. 2 things. Great to hear Weber carbies roar and great to see the front bumpers are level !!! One of my pet hates grrr

[@Braveheart7914-idfl]

Imo done to perfection from a basket case literally to a stunning escort I would be proud to own and show in your company name .

[@bigsteviesri]

[@johnhislop2993]

Awesome little car gentlemen. If you're bored, I've got a '74 Mazda Bongo which needs restoring. All the best from Australia.

[@thomasmcglinchey2024]

She is a tap job sir well done

[@chrischapman138]

[@girl-pl3wx]

Absolutely perfect !! 🇬🇷🇬🇷🇬🇷👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾

[@pauliboo2]

New subscriber, the algorithm suggested you guys, and what a first video to watch! Now I need some time to watch all your videos!

[@enoz.j3506]

What a shame the engine has probs,be interestin in what has happened to it,my guess is the same as yours, it might be cracked,doesnt need much to screw compression.The colour is perfect,good one lads.

[@stuartjamieson2427]

Stunning lovely but why such small engine

[@davidewing5391]

Beautiful job guys, I love it👍🇨🇦

[@davidyates748]

Well done guys, that's one hell of a turnaround in the time!

[@johnrowell942]

Great build and hope you send the engine back to the builds and hope they can fix it. 👍💯

[@mikenewman137]

Looks absolutely amazing job guys

[@chrisgregory2269]

Top job guys raffle it off

[@ODDAutos]

Cheers Chris, yes raffles a good idea 👍

[@mrblenksmrblenks3114]

Guys I'm in awe of the car....absolutely stunning....one of the nicest I have seen..as for the the engine I'd hope the builder would sort it.

[@davekay6795]

Looks fantastic, pity the engine was a bust, but you both created a beautiful car. Very skilled trades men.

[@alpi.t.]

The car is awesome. Good job.

[@ricknorville2324]

Very nice lads very impressive watched each episode brought back my youthful dreams LOL 😂😂

[@ODDAutos]

Ha ha cheers buddy 👍

[@stevenwilcock3934]

Beautiful Stunning motor , would not change a thing on it , looks like its doing 100mph just sat there . Well done guys

[@adinlouw]

loved the mk1 build series. I am here to stay.

[@ODDAutos]

Ahh brilliant, glad you liked it buddy! Yes More to come in the future 👍

[@MrCaprinut]

Awesome looking. Sad to see the engine gone bad.

[@TheNorthernmunky]

I cannot believe that’s the same car, absolutely awesome, outstanding and beautiful job

[@chrisblay]

It has been a mammoth restoration project. A complete transformation.

[@ODDAutos]

Cheers Chris, definitely looks better now lol 👍

[@bandiflip]

OUTSTANDING !!!!! She is a thing of beauty,well done guys ….. you smashed it !!!!! 👌🏻👌🏻👌🏻👌🏻👌🏻👌🏻👌🏻👌🏻👌🏻👌🏻

[@ODDAutos]

Cheers buddy, glad you like it! I think she’s a keeper now 😬

[@paulharrison3298]

Get yourself some mud flaps or PPF to prevent stone chips ✌🏻

[@johnfisher1544]

That car is OFF THE CHARTS, love it love it, love it…. That might have taken a bit longer than planned, but to restore a MK 1 to that standard is commendable. I am so driven with the project i am looking into a trip to Birmingham to have a crack and to see her in the flesh…. AWESOME Lads, good job….!

[@dkermode1]

Beautiful rig! I don't believe the Mark 1 Escort was ever sold in Canader. I have never seen one here. I certainly remember seeing a few Lotus Cortina's in the day. Keep up the good, and interesting, work. Cheers!

[@steveduffy1800]

The finished car looks amazing guys. A top job, I don’t think you’ll struggle to sell it. I’d have it if I had the money and I’m a classic mini fan. All though I’ve a soft spot for a mk1 escort 👍

[@lannagifts1]

Awesome!!! Mark 1 is the only real escort and when you fitted the spotlights on it brought back memories. Wish I could crowd fund and buy it. Great series lads.

[@toomasloonet7831]

(7 bar compression is also very low for a built engine). Top work from you guys, love the channel.

[@BeneathTheBark]

What an absolutely fantastic job Gents, I don’t think I could let it go. Onwards and upwards what is next 👍 Great entertainment.

[@williamsclio378]

Bravo lads, love it! Shame about the engine. See you both at the NEC!

[@-abacchus]

Wow, just wow..! Watching the _Previously_ section's a good reminder of just how much work you both squeezed in to those three months! The finished motor - *Absolutely beautiful!!* Such a stunning example of this amazing 'scort..!! ...and don't feel too down-hearted about the few engine gremlins, judging by how far you've come, this'll probably be sorted by the time I finish typing this sentence! Great job buddies!!

[@JohnHonda101]

just caught up with this, shame about the engine but you guys have done an outstanding job.

[@jambojames7427]

Bit of an anti-climax but will be amazing when it's running. Look forward to seeing the new "Paul's projects" can't wait to see where the channel will go next

[@johnhiggin7424]

Wow 👌 I always thought it was going to be brilliant and it better than that! For some reason I missed the notification but saw a glimpse of it on furious driving show walk about. I wouldn't beat myself up about the few snags you were always going to have a few. Have you got anywhere with them? I'm thinking valve sticking ,but really not sure about the coolant issue? Anyway I'm sure you'll sort it soon. Enjoy the show and I'm looking forward to the next installment. Well done.

[@josepharallo5450]

mother of god! what a great job you guys did, just a stunning blue beauty

[@LeeRestoration1275]

Looks great , you and "no runs" have turned out a real stunner

[@jeffsmith7864]

Wonderful job lads it looks fantastic I love the mk1 Escort. Excellent video thanking you for sharing.

[@jakeanderson718]

stunning workmanship brillant finish in such a short time ye inspire me. head cracked imo.

[@julianrotherham5243]

The Mk1 looks amazing gents 😍😍😍. Good work, you don’t fancy doing my Mgb do ya? 🙏🏼Bummer about the engine 😭😭. Looking forward to watching the next build .

[@mariosnikolaou5212]

Guys the result is unbelievable.Such a pity I can't see it up close. Can't wait to see the mk2 5 cylinder roar to life. Greetings from Greece!

[@neilmacdonaldfilm]

Fantastic car well done.

[@danwaddingham639]

Wow what can I say stunning 😍 absolutely fantastic to see the cars in the flesh, finish to detail 👏 110% without hesitation, was great to see you today at the show boys and team, and a really great chat with you Keith get onto tic tok 😀 👍 hope to see you at a show again soon 😁🙃

[@timewart]

Nice work, look forward to your future work. thank you.

[@Hondasboy1000]

Cracking job there gents... bravo 👌

[@stusoldcars4248]

Looks absolutely gorgeous. 💯 👍👍👍👍👍

[@richardhintonracing]

Magnificent workmanship at a breakneck pace superbly executed. My choice would have been either all Ermine white or all solid black in both cases with black wheels and all the standard brightwork. No roll cage and comfy seats Must be a cracked casting it ran badly before it got any heat in to it compression must be entering the cooling system.

[@keithbaldock5304]

Stunning car done yourselves proud despite the engine problem keep the videos coming guys good entertainment.

[@ruannsmuts6453]

Wow, what a great transformation. Looks absolutely gorgeous.

[@alexgardner7234]

[@tonyaylott4114]

Amazing just amazing lads, I just hope mine turns out just as good as this one 👍

[@Wayne-R-]

Lads you’ve smashed it the car looks stunning, my fav cor and the work you have done to get it to look like that is top noch thanks for the series

[@ODDAutos]

Ahh cheers Wayne, glad you like it. Was worried about the colour at first but it looks proper mint.

[@Wayne-R-]

@@ODDAutos the colour looks amazing I can’t put into words how much I love that car

[@johnwalsh3690]

Absolutely unbelievable what you guys have done. There are no words to do this justice. Just wish the engine builder had put the same effort into this car. But i have no doubts you will get it sorted

[@ODDAutos]

Cheers John, yes think as soon as we are back from the show I’ll pop the head off and fix it. Just a shame that’s all 👍
