Default Mk2 restoration attempt

Hi Guyz,

I'm new to the forum but not that new to the amazing world of the escort! Was a rally navigator a few years back and my early navigation was in a mk1 - amazing stuff sideways always! Anyway many years later, I've gotten a 1978 mk2 (is this a mk2) which I would like to slowly attempt a restoration to a road car. It has a 2L Pinto engine. It came from someone who was not interested with it anymore and a mate and I took it off him. I may decide to drop in a roll cage and do some hill climbs or historic rallies but all that depends on finance....and the Mrs . Had a look at it yesterday and was wondering if I anyone could point me in the right direction to get the following parts:
- Exhaust down pipe (piece that joins the manifold to the rest of the exhaust)
- Brake pipes -from the master cylinder
- Rear seat
- Drivers side mirror

I've attached a few photos of the car and I'm pretty sure I will need more parts as the restoration continues. I also have a set of Webers and an inlet manifold which I'm not sure of as they did not come with the car. Looking forward to your comments, advice, ideas etc.

Cheers!

Steve.
