This Ford Escort MK1 is packing some serious punch. For a car from 1974, it still looks very good by today's standards with its white Compomotive wheels.

The owner is not scared of any purists because he makes no secrets about running an Audi 20V turbo engine. Mated to the light-weight Escort chassis, it should result in some serious performance figures.

This Volvo doesn't seem to be finished yet, but already it has a lot of potential.

... especially when we take look inside the engine bay. Is that a LS1 engine? It also appears that the owner has worked magic on the suspension system.
