Erh, Umm. Hi?
I saw the "Introduce yourself" line and decided to pop in and say "HI!"
I've been "Ford" man, or at least tried to be for most of my life.
My first car was a '98 Escort ZX2. I was irresponsibly and wound up losing her in an accident. I then had to fall into a Saturn (it was the only thing available with the little cash I had as a broke 18 Year Old) But I felt better about myself when I grabbed a 1990 Bronco II (Eddie Bauer Edition too!). I drove her hard until her trans went. From there I jumped into a '99 ZX2 (Because I really enjoyed that damn car) until I realized I was cursed and totaled that one within 7 months. I swore off of those cars after that.I decided at that point to finance my first car and the best deal I got was an '03 Grand Prix (GM, I know, I know, but ya know what... she was a good car) I recently put that Grand Prix up for sale and bought my new baby (and probably my favorite (Bronco II being my close second)) a 2012 Escape.
Picking up the Escape woke up a feeling in me I hadn't had since I was in my Bronco II. The off-roading side of me for one, but secondly the urge to do my own build.
Since I was 17 I had been wanting to do my own rebuild on a Ford. My dreams jumped between a 71 Mach I Mustang, to a 95 F150. My newest obsession is a 66 Bronco AND/OR a 96 Bronco.
I decided I would pick the brains of those more experienced than me.
So Hi there everyone!
