Prices are up because everyone loves an old Ford!
Got my mk2 escort in 1999 swapped it for £500 and a mk2 non runner with rotten shell which had some decent bits on, 2.8 billies, fishnet recaros, and a few more bits and pieces prob all worth about £500 so cost me about £1k all together. Glad I've still got it, had some good times in that car.
That's a great story, glad he got his car back after all those years. 82 years old and back with his XKE, I hope he gets it restored in time so he can enjoy it again. I would like to hear the story from the guy who said it'd been in his garage for the last 40 years!
What sad news indeed. The white escort youtube vids are the stuff of legend. Many years of development of man and machine gone, but I'm sure the memories and massive input and inspiration he gave will continue for many years. Mr McKinley, I salute you. Thoughts to his family.RIP
Sorry for your loss.
That is a bit wow. Plenty of nostalgic reading there. I bet your missus was thrilled when you said you wanted to keep the boxes full of old car mags!
