A new toy, unsure?
Discussion
Well I have just took this in part exchange and am unsure what to do, my personal fleet is getting a bit big, so something has to go, it's either this or a mk1 escort vauxhall powered.
Porsche-
Yes it really is that clean, had a partial restoration a few years ago, car is basically a stunner.
Escort mk1-
Again a very nice and well done but I have never really gelled to it so to speak, owned it for around 8 months.
What would you do?
Anybody interested in either one?

As said, keep the Ford but get rid of the Vauxhall lump
As opposed to what engine, I think this caption says it all?http://i59.photobucket.com/albums/g284/mechanicalr...

I'd get rid of the caption too.
Ha. No offence intended. Can appreciate the work, I'm also sure it's an excellent car. You said yourself that you haven't gelled with the car though, perhaps because it's not the engine that the car deserves. I'd be happy with a Kent 1600 crossflow, even happier with a BDA, or Pinto.
edit - to clarify I'm not trolling you, it's just not what I, or apparently a few others, would choose.

No problems, I don't take offence so there is no issue, it really drives great, I had a cosworth lump in my 106 years ago with the 4wd running gear and it was great but I tend to like crazy cars and this is up there with the rest as its a little different.Ha.
