The End of the "Egg"
After 12 years and 212,000 miles, the Escort
was done. Running on 3, occasionally 4 cylinders, muffler "hole-ly",
the Koni's adjusted all the way out, suspension bushing all worn out, paint
faded, lowers oxidized, and the interior bleached by years of brutal sun
into a nice "blea!" color, it was time to say Adios! I thought a
viking style funeral would be in order, but I didn't think the neighbors
would appreciate a car-b-que in the street. So I donated it to a
local charity, who sent "The Hook" to pick it up. They arrived early
in the morning before work, hooked it up....
