Escort Van was sold to some Chineese guy from south Manchester... (Triad) :x
MKII had to be broken for spares after I landed badly going over a bridge in Newton Heath & Twisted the Rear end out of shape, :oops:
I also snapped the douplex pully because the compression was so high after fitting a road race cam. :oops:
All parts sold to the guys from Autoweld on Wrigley Head Cres, Failsworth, to be used on project vehicles they had.... :cry:

Do I miss it ? Hell yes ! :wink:
