Flying Ford
These older Ford Escorts seem to be ideal rally cars and they all looked impressive on the corners as well as flying down the straights.

Nice capture. You, at least I think it was you, published this. So you came out unscathed?
Never fear Smithies here…….but the post on Thursday next shows an altogether closer call…..
Thanks for your concern Tim… 🙂
Glad to hear it and I’ll look forward to the one on Thursday.
Takes me back a while this photo!! Love the photo and love the car! (They may be a lot safer nowadays, but cars just don’t have the character anymore..)
I can’t tell them apart anymore, they all look the same. This car was the winner by six seconds so the old ones are still the best…..rather like thee and me…!
I drove one for years! Never got stuck in the snow, and I always got where I needed to be. Not real sexy or impressive otherwise, but I loved that car.
That’s the thing with cars, we grow attached to most of them even when they’re falling to bits. S’funny but I’ve only ever had one Ford and that was about in 1964-5. It had vacuum driven windscreen wipers that didn’t work going uphill.
