Mx3 front on an Escort?
Mx3 front on an Escort?
I know that this isn't REALLY Mx3 related as it is Escort related. but i was cruising through the forums at feoa.net and came across a third gen front end swap and the directions for it to be done on the 2nd gens. And i got to thinking maybe an Mx-3 front can be adapted to work on a Lightly modded Escort/Tracer front end. I did some bad Pshop impression and the general idea might be hard to pull off requiring body work, but mechanically..... would it be possible?

I'll see if i can pull them off the old computer i was using. But from asking around on other forums i guess it's possible just the hardest part is the fender graphing. Getting the door and fender to blend would be a batch.
