i love looking around scrap yards and the crap end that don't do salvage just
mot failures etc don't have many old escorts mk 5 anymore and there is a reason for that, they have mostly been scrapped already.
i love it when people expect a old car to be in the condition of a 3 year old one, they are out there but few and far between.
in the old days a escort (68-87) would do 7 winters and need welding some even sooner
if used regularly
