bref ◊ 2006-07-27 14:26	1983 Ford Escort?
Sunbar ◊ 2006-07-27 16:11	bref, I agree with Mk III Escort but why 1983 rather than 1980. Is there something I missed seeing?
bref ◊ 2006-07-27 16:59	Well, I presume it was so modern when it went on sale that I choose 1983...Anyway, it is true that it was really modern by 1980 standard!

The rub strip is missing from the side; they never carried a GL badge on the wing (unlike the Ghia); the back bumper is too heavy and the light cluster is too light and has a black surround, compared to the Escort's. 1982 Escort GL: http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3220/3155003230_61b5f3e7f1.jpg?v=1230766632 I think it could be a Talbot/Chrysler Sunbeam GL: http://www.talbot-sunbeam.de/gallerie_grundmodelle_3.html http://www.talbot-sunbeam.de/chrysler_sunbeam_basic_models.html Link to "media.turbosport.co.uk" -- Last edit: 2010-04-14 15:42:56
