I think she is too far gone now, we did hope to for many years though but other projects got in the way.

But hopefully bits of her will live on in a long nose D type replica kit we have.

Cheers

My parents black mk2 Escort 1600 sport, with gold JPS graphics and pinstripes.  A nod to the Capri, Ford had previously brought out   :cool:

They sold it to someone who very soon smashed it up  :cry:
