Shame that the saff had to go be lost to make this but you can always rebuild her later to rd spec

Escort looks fantastic. Hopefully get out the night for a look

I it's geting there can't wait to give her a test drive hope it's faster than the old sierra should be a bit more nimble on the bends. the big torque (393lb@3500rpm) made the sierra go that bit better
