Stirring shots all, provoked a lot of memories having driven and serviced motors like these in the 70/80's, I suppose that makes me old school too. Rarely see shots of cars going anything other than sideways.

don't see many of these - a mars bar to anyone who can tell me the model of Escort - one of the UK boys will get it.

and these were my first with a proper lens and a body with proper AI Servo;

I am subscribing so that I can see more great shots!

I grew up in Australia and love the old Escorts. I may be wrong, but I don't believe the early Escorts were imported into North America?

Too much expensive stuff to fit in my cheap camera bag.
