Nice! In Brazil there are many Escorts with a Zetec Rocam engine still in circulation, but this is the first time I have heard of a 4x4. Here, there were other Escort models from the 80's to the 2000's and this one is better known as "Escort Sapão", something like Big Frog. It's an excellent car, but very expensive to maintain around here.

Did the usual first start prepping and had it up and running like it never sat. All original 1 owner with 80k original miles and the most awesome part, my grandfather was the car lot salesman that sold it to him brand new. He said I stand to inherit it when he passes away it gets to where he can’t drive it anymore
