Used to run 9s, loud as hell, last seen in in a yard in Tacarigua on a side street off the main road? Was it this car or a similar blue Camaro?

do you have any pics of the purple 2 door escort that use to run 12secs with Evans?
Cant remember the owner's name, but it was a ford engine with plenty NOS. He and Evans use to put down a good match up..

the bars below was traction bars to make the back of the car jump when you move off. I remember beef boys escort but it is not that one. This one was a well painted crisp purple escort...think the guys name was Jagernath..or something like that. I remember the head gasket use to blow often, but it use to wok.

That made me put a Ford 2000 ohc engine with drafts and ting in meh Lancer. I bought the engine from Rawle Francis escort....dem was the days.

how about the cortina with a 280C turbo engine callled ......DOWN SOUTH...lol
