Hey Grant,
I know you are building up a Mk1 Escort to go have some fun.
I just wanted to share the 1968 ( I think )Mk1 Escort that I had. It was a little old ladies car that was traded in at Fairview Motors, TeRapa, Hamilton
As I worked there in the used car department I got a special deal and drove this car before I set off for the US and England in 1972.
This great little car did not have the power of the Anglia I had previously but it was smooth and reliable and when I sold it the money paid for all my costs and travel expenses until I got my job at Trojan Works. I have many fond memories of this little car and I hope your Escort will do the same for you.
(Remember this is how they looked originally. This one was light blue. Cheers, Ken )
