im bored so here some pics of my car

im bored so here are some pictars of my escort which is my daily driver so i dont have to drive my rx7 daily(cause it breaks down so much lol(wait thats not funny)) i did the hood scoop forever ago, but never finished it, so me and my buddy where gonna work on teh 7 but we didnt have the right parts(need some suspension parts), so we finished the escort did some finishing work on the bondo and scoop and painted it. now i know it isnt perfect. but it shore looks alot better than it did. trust me. oh and i shaved the the windsheild squirters

Dude. That is just plain horrible. As bad as it is, I am sure it looked better before the bondo shoebox.

LMAO!!! At least if I ever see your car I will recognize it. Besides, its not like there is anything you can do to an escort to make it uglier than it was when new, right? Bring your damn 7 over and I'll help you get it running so you can light a fire under that poor ford and be done with it.

I thought your signature was a joke when I read one of your posts in another thread. Wow. Well it doesn't compare to my old Datsun.

When I got it:


After I painted it:

lol, that escort is ridiculous. but you know what to hell with what i or anyone else thinks, its your car. why the scoop? it'll let air in but there wwll be no way for it to escape, thus increasing drag, and therefore slowing you down..... post pics of the 7!

the 7 is actually running, its just not driving, if you read my other post, it explains. but dont hate on the escort. lol. but the escort has proven to be very reliable for me, and hopefully will take me to north carolina and back, so i can pick up my new 7

the scoop is actually right over the air filter, so it will use up some of the air. and pics are at the bottom.
