Default My Escort (:

As per resquested by a few members, heres my Escort. I really apologize if i offend anyone by the condition the old girl looks to be in but i assure you it is A1 mechanically now. And it's getting a paint job soon too, sorry for the cruddy quality photos. Just incase anyone was wondering, the switches are for lights, ignition, engine starting and fuel pump. The guages are oil pressure, engine temp and battery voltage. (: I'm not sure what the orange light is for lol.

well BradZ, it's in better nick than some of mine. We have 7 escorts in the yard at the moment, plus 3 cortinas also running pintos, The son races Escort, the wife races Cortina. Simply have to have donor cars on standby in this game. I see you have a horse float in the background, much the same here.
Cheers,
Les

Yeah she's a bit rough on the outside, but the whole car (engine included) had a 100% top to bottom check before i got it. I'd hate to think how much money had gone into it.But it doesn't actually have many (if any) dents in it at all, so it's mainly just the paint.Soon im going to paint it so hopefully that should clean it up a bit (:

Man love that interior. I think the orange light (going by original specs) lights up just before your seat ejects you from the car before a herendous collision or commonly known as HCA ( Herendous Collision Avertor)

Dont let those other guys bring you done about the state of your car

I think its great!
