Finally sold the droptop

Hated to do it but I let it go. got 7500 for it tho'. I got a 93 Escort runnin' low 13's now. I don't think I would ever have seen that in my Cutlass. Didn't even have to do a engine swap. Couldn't believe it but there are more performance parts for my Escort. I should have an 11 second car by this summer. Sorry guys but I had to let it go. I sold it with all the Tv's, the four Cadence 12's, the highs mids, 17" rims and I just had it painted. Maybe I'll get another one day but I'm having too much fun beating up on Mustangs, Camaros, and GTP's right now.

What the hell? 13 seconds for a Goddamn Escort? Damn, what the hell do you have in it?

I have a 1.8 with a turbo. Stock ford parts, with a little custom work. I did get the heads ported and polished, but nearly everything else is stock.

Sounds like you got a good price for your convertible.

 

I'd personally rather have a slow Cutty than the fastest Escort in the world though, but that's just me. I think I'm getting too old to care about speed anyway. :) The deal on my L67 dropout fell through due to some (IMO) unscrupulous business practices on the part of the junkyard I was dealing with, and honestly, I don't even really care and haven't looked for another.

I agree with you man, you have to be comfortable and look good. Not to offend anyone though, I just don't look good in an Escort. I'm too damn tall for that.
