escort-ross Posted March 11, 2009 Share Posted March 11, 2009 Well ... as most of you know my car got smashed up not too long ago! So even before the insurance payed out i started to look for a new motor! the rules were as follows: Had to be an Escort! Had to be Amparo blue Had to have no rust!!!!!!! Soooooo ... Did i manage it? .... Hell yer i did!!! whooo! Got myself a Mint! 3dr Amparo blue finesse ... no rust at all on any of the arches just 1 tiny spec on the boot lid just below the spoiler, smaller than a 5p coin. Swapped most the stuff off my old car just looks 10 times better being a 3dr ... So lets see what you guys think ... only got a few pics at the moment ... Should look good considering ive spent 4 days g3'ing it and waxing it! aha Thought as it was my Birthday id reveal it to you guys What you think??? http://www.evo-host.co.uk/getimg/18623.jpg http://www.evo-host.co.uk/getimg/18624.jpg http://www.evo-host.co.uk/getimg/18625.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

escort-ross Posted March 11, 2009 Author Share Posted March 11, 2009 (edited) looks good what you going to do about the dirty great ding in the front wing though ? Its not that big, not even creased ... should pop out with a bit of gentle persuasion .... How much do you think i paid for it though?
