He wanted to take the Fiesta to TOTB but it wasn't finished in time, also the Escort would be no good at top speed as he was getting to 5th gear in the space at Ford Fair, tops out at 140 in 6th i think

Looks like Ian3dr's Cossie, the exceptional thing about it (apart from how clean it is), is that it does get used....
