I would imagine they would clear the calipers etc being 16" (dont know for certain) and the ford scorpio original wheel offsets are between 35mm to 38mm so you should be OK with other (suspension) clearances.

if they are the flat faced ones look a bit like a merc wheel ,then yes they are a good fit on a t3.
they wont clear the front grease caps though. where the centre cap fits. the lip that holds the centre cap in place can easily be removed with a small chisel and cleaned up with a small half round file afterwards. either that or you will need to space them out. i think i did read of someone spacing them out 6mm and shortening the grease cap a bit too. bolts wise standard steel wheel bolts from T4/Sharan/alhambra/galaxy work well, look like a long version of the standard t3 bolts. (not sure if they are long enough for spacers.) you will find the bolt holes on the wheels look quite big. i have heard of some people using inserts in them, but lots have just used them with the standard t3 large radius bolts/nuts.
