oo yes... slamed till it gets beached on speed bumps
and on some bright minilights



o and also l8er ill post some pic's of my dads lot (all of them in my sigg )

[Davenger]

Dude, don't go for minilites, there's so much more choice
There are loads of wheels in 4x100 PCD, ATS classics would rock on a 340.
I was gonna buy a 340 and slam it over ATS classics, but it fell through and I bought a hillman avenger instead.

lol, well ill have a thin anda photoshop, tbh ild rather buy some revos or something for the harrier lol ,

i can cut the front springs and heat up the lefas and sit on the rear to lower it ;D

[Davenger]

Better off using lowering blocks on the rear, heating the spring will knacker it

Didn't Revs magazine do a modified Escort Harrier about 10-12 years ago, then give it away as a prize in a competition? I remember there being some talk about why they did it to a Harrier as aren't they supposed to be quite rare? I remember entering the competition though, didn't win!! Wonder what happened to that car?

Nice car BTW. I like old Fords, just not the price that usually goes with them!!
