From the seller: “I am selling my late fathers Ford Escort. It was a vehicle that when he no longer needed it as he bought himself a van, parked it to the rear of the property where it stayed ever since it has never been covered. There obviously is rust in various places, I would imagine it’s either a project for someone who really likes this car or use it as I don’t have vehicle for another Escort similar age, it’s only done 21,000 miles and my father was the second keeper from newI will try and answer any questions you may have.
