   Orange Mk1 Escort registration number PEL147G was stolen from a lock up garage in Livingston, West Lothian at some point between 27th February & 12th March 2014. The owner went to check on the car which was kept at his mother’s house on Wednesday & discovered it missing. It has been off the road since 2006 & is fitted with standard front wings with RS2000 badges on the wings & bootlid, white rear cage, fishnet Recaro front seats (Rear one has been removed) & 4 spoke Capri Laser alloys. It’s powered by a 2litre Pinto with K&N air filter mated to a 5 speed gearbox. The car has had a new front panel & sills fitted, the back panel is rough. Also taken were spare doors, callipers, 4 branch manifold, a set of Rolltop Recaro’s (These are fairly rare so should stand out if you’re offered a set), 6 dial dash, a set of Revolutions & various engine parts. The owner has had the car for 18 years & is offering a cash reward for info leading to the recovery of the car. |
