Only just noticed this whilst searching for a towbar for mine! lol.
Any chance you'd be willing to sell it after you take it off?
I could do with one for towing the other motor on a dolly.

Looks fucking quality mate.

Those bits you need on your wings, take a photo and let me know which bits you need, i'll cut em off my Black Escort and send em to ya as it's got 2 near enough brand new wings on it! Cover postage and it's all good!!
