What does that make this?



Says right in the image "images/1983_G3_Escort"
Gatrac, down in Chiddingfold, in the deepest darkest gullies of Surrey made those G3s.. Sheet metal from the MkIII for looks, MkII everything else.
Front engine, rwd...

Well the question is, is it an "Esquirt" or not? And you did not answer the question.

An Escort in Exsquirt clothing..

Are you familiar with the G3?

Yes, that is why I on-purposely picked it to make you take back your blanket Esquirt statement.

Make me?

I am confused.
A decent MkI or MkII Escort is a nice car and balanced and has limtless potential, but now, pointlessly expensive and, really not we we need.

The fwd "Santorum" " of a car was a vile disgusting thing...and was for years till maybe the last ones...
but the thing called MkIII well http://spreadingsantorum.com/

I had a 1986 ford escort as my first car. i hated it and it hated me... my friend had an 87 escort, GXP? or EXP? it had the cool looking wing and it was more of a 'hatch' design (or just looked a lot better) but he got it totaled right away...

Ugh.. my 86 was such a pile of crap... it would be fun if it was RWD though... hehehhe

The Escort mighta been rotten.

This is what I should do with the Starlet. There was a Subaru Justy for sale locally for $600 recently...

Might be happier with something like this...
