Pug Posted February 8, 2023 Report Share Posted February 8, 2023 (edited) I have recently bought the above car from a dealer and would like to know a bit about it's history. The car came with a large number of photos and I know it was originally red but the previous owner has done a great job of painting it light blue. I'm hoping that the previous owner is/was a member of OSF and will contact me. Or maybe there's others on here who may know about the car or owned it in the past. Any messages gratefully received.

BaileyMex Posted February 9, 2023 Report Share Posted February 9, 2023 Welcome to OSF! Can't say I immediately recognise the car, but we have had thousands of different members over the years. Have you got any photo's of the car as it looks today? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pug Posted February 10, 2023 Author Report Share Posted February 10, 2023 Thanks, I came across these old photos before. I'm not sure how to add photos but will try to post an up to date photo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pug Posted February 10, 2023 Author Report Share Posted February 10, 2023 Can anyone point me to a How To guide to posting photos on here as I can't seem to locate one? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Miniliteman Posted February 10, 2023 Report Share Posted February 10, 2023 Below the box where you type your message there is a paperclip with some text next to it, including "choose files" tick that and then select the photo you want to add. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh OK, I'm near Hailsham, I'll be out and about in my Escort as soon as the salt is washed off the roads, yours is a similar colour to mine. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mk2escort1311 Posted March 26, 2023 Report Share Posted March 26, 2023 Good evening. I am the previous owner of the escort. If there is anything you need to know then feel free to ask. The car was purchased in 2017 from a fella in rugby. I drove it home and started stripping it the next day. I think the resto took a couple of years. Once I completed I wasn’t driving it enough so decided to let her go. Sad to see her go. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was but I enjoyed building it as much as the small amount of driving I did in it. broke about even on the sale of it minus labour so was happy with that also. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
