Looking good.
|
Lots of my friends had these when I was in high school in 1989+
I remember them well. |
Cool car Rick, I remember them well myself. My Grandmother had one, yes that right my Grandmother had an Escort GT. I hated those **** automatic shoulder belts, but I was little too, like 10. They hurt my neck, HAHAHA. Good luck with her, she looks very well cared for.
|
Really good looking Escort. And when the motor goes out, BPT or KLVE swap time :devil:
|
Always liked that body style Escort GT! :nice:

My wife had a '86 and what a POS it was. All kinds of things went wrong with that car which was surprising because I had an '85 and it was solid as a rock. Slow as balls, but dead reliable.

My first car was the Escort, a 1992 model with 1.9L engine.

POS. The slowest car I've ever driven was an 85 Escort wagon diesel. A friend had it, and holy crap. 0-60 was about a day and a half, but he claimed it got around 60 mpg. Take that, Prius. :p |
That's pretty impressive.
I was averaging 30+ mpg with my 1992 Escort 1.8L ... sold it back in 2000 when I got my brand new Mustang. |
