Default just won a new toy on ebay-anyone know it?

quite excited about it.
my first "quick" escort i bought in 1989 when i was 19 was a flat front x-pack in primer with a 2.0 pinto in it!





of course its miles away
im hoping to have some fun on track with it.

I was watching that on ebay it looks hard as nails, nice one
I think the owner was being a little optimistic with the "190+ bhp on twin 40's though"

there is no plan to sell this on!(i know i say it about a lot of cars!).seems like a good fun car,imagine it with diagonal blue rs stripes like on the moorland classics x pack escort and some nice advertising stickers on it-you may be busy paul!

the guy has contacted me and i do own it.well once i have paid him.was going to collect it today but a certain football match has put a stop to that-they had better win!
