1995 Ford Escort

Second life (maybe 3rd?). 
My 1995 Ford Escort we purchased from dad in ~2000, finally wouldn't pass vehicle inspection due to some frame rot.  Sadly I had to buy another vehicle. Jarrod brought the Escort to the junk yard a few weeks back and actually got a couple hundred dollars for it.  A guy at the junkyard called "dibs" on the car as soon as it arrived.  Jarrod went back a couple weeks later to talk about scrapping his Honda and found the guy had removed the rear hatch, rear seats and installed big knobby truck tires on it.  He said (we already knew it was great in snow) the 95 Escorts were the best vehicles in the snow and mud and would use the car for part retrieval in the scrap yard.  Though we'll miss her, the old 95 Escort is still cruising around, though it's up and down the rows of cars at the junkyard. 

What a great car!   Thanks Dad!
