stevmo3691 Posted February 11, 2010 Share Posted February 11, 2010 glad your keeping it going. get sick of reading all these 'escort breaking' posts. they can be useful but at the rate they are being broken there wont be many left in couple years. theres 8 different ones at my local breakers to the ones that were there 3 weeks ago. thats at least 16 in 3 weeks just in my area Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
