Cool car matey!! Although you don't have it any longer??
Even though it was an original, low mileage motor, weren't you tempted to mod it? Not even a little bit??

No mate, saw the light and moved to big turbo'd Volvo's haha.
Oh definitely, I have a 2.0 Silvertop in the garage that I had planned on building into a ZT to drop in it, even began stripping the engine from the Escort! Well, one bolt, then decided it was too clean to mess with so put it back on lol.
