Default A17 COS

Hi guys

I remember back when i was a kid when i first fell in love with the ESCOS.
Im going back the best part of 12years now, and very near to where i lived was an amazing red escort cosworth, with gold rondells. the reg was A17COS. It was featured first in back power at the cossie thrash, and then a while after in fast ford with evo written on the doors in gold decal. was owned by a guy called Ray Anslow. The car dissapeard and afew years later i saw the plates on a maroon saph cos.

does anyone have any picture of the red escort im going on about?

I have the copy of Max Power and can scan the cover/feature for you.
The reg ended up on my old trackcar bought from Paul Linfoot who bought the shell/reg back off me when I broke the car.
