Back glass tint too dark...

I can see much better now.







I would like to be able to share some badass story about how I pulled five Chevy's out of the ditch all at once...and how the female passengers in the sissy Chevy's were so impressed by my massive man truck that they rush me and demanded I take them right then and there...and how the high pitch screams of their pleasure simply shattered the glass...but I can't share that story with you because it wouldn't be true. Instead, all I can tell you is I must have divided by zero. I was in a rush carrying some seriously heavy boxes...who am I kidding, they were so light that my 10 year old could pick them up with one finger...I somehow shut the glass first then slammed the door in such a way that it created the epic fail that you see in the picture above.

I am really glad I have what I consider the idiot policy on my insurance with a $0 deductible.

Ouch. I did the same thing when I had my Bronco years back. You just feel like such a dumb a$$ when it happens. Luckily the one yard by me had a replacement for 100 bucks and it was pretty easy to install ( even with the motorized rear mechanism ). Getting all the little bits of glass out of the interior and door cavity was a whole other story !!

Ugh. I was working on the rear lock the other day with the barn doors open and the hatch down; and I was thinking... I wonder what would happen if I pulled a bunch of hot chicks in a Chevy out of a ditch or somebody walked by and slammed the bottom door(s) right now by mistake?

Cossies are awesome, I would love to have one of the old Sierra RS Cosworths or Escort RS Cosworths. Those cars were bad for their day!

I am such a huge Escort fan, I look for Escort gt's on CL all the time and never see any worth saving Been looking for years and will probably never find one. I'm fine with that at this point though, still wanting that 6.0

The LX had a SOHC 1.9 the GT had a 1.8 DOHC. You're basically asking what the difference between a 6.0 and a 7.3 is There are 100000 mods for the GT and 2 for the 1.9

The 1.9 was an awesome engine and didn't have the bad rap of the 1.8!

However!!! the 1.9 ate roller lifters when you put it in first gear at 45 miles an hour and let the clutch out!

Both cars rusted out in the strut towers!
