Check the VIN plate and I'm sure you'll find it's a BC Escort. Mk2 is 1975 to 1977. I bought a 1975 Mk2 as a parts vehicle for my 1978 BC and alot of parts didn't fit.

eBay has some parts available if you want to have a bit of a look. Failing that you could always try a Ford wrecker and see if they can track some parts down for you
