Default TheScrapman's MK1 Mexico

All the pictures have been removed because chrisj28 insulted my mama by calling her "a fat cunt"

Although you come across quite badly, i have to say i love the Mexico.
I don't actually own a Ford at present, but i don't give grief to those who do either..

About Ł3000 which was quite a bit of money to spend on a MK1 Escort back then. Did get loads of enjoyment doing it though.

Good phones they are....had it for 3 years!!!!!

Thumbs down

Just spoke to the guy who owns your car now and he's woken up to the fact that the value of his car has halved cos it used to be owned by a twunt.

I am the only one who is somewhat doubtful of this tale? It's easy to take some pics of a 20 year old motor and they say it's yours, is there any more proof or are we just going to take your word for it?

Some one had to say it.

Looks a very nice car but how did people buy brand new Mk3 Escorts and enter them in the concours class. Sure in 88 the Mk4 was already in full swing???

Well like i said i dont really care what anyone thinks, i have a box full of trophies in my loft and could post some pics of them, some of the national ones even have the reg number of my car engraved on them but why should i go to all that trouble for some of you tossers!

Oh yeah and if some of you have looked at my photobucket album then you would know the standard of work and attention to detail i work to on my bikes!!!!

Do you have any Fords at the minute apart from the White Mk3 Transit Van?

Just curious too see what blue oval you got these days.

The problem is you have only taken pics of pics in a showroom - this doesnt really prove anything when everyone wants to see show pics, presentation pics, etc.
