So all year I've been looking at Granadas thinking of getting one or preferably trade that Chevy Blazer I have in one. I was looking mostly at MK2 S2s, since I had a MK1 a few years ago and now wanted to try a MK2. Then it took a surprising turn. When I told a friend of mine I was looking for one he said he knew where one was sitting pretty much abandoned. So the next time he went by there he sent me a picture of it, and told me where it was. 20 minutes later I was staring at a '77 2.3 Coupe, that obviously hadn't been left alone for the past 20 years it had sat there. Windows were smashed, the roof had been jumped on and a thick layer of moss and spiderweb had taken the interior hostage.
Now I'm not one to shy away from an abandoned car, dilapidated as it may be. The Escort would be proof of that.
So I noted the VIN number, tracked down the owner and gave him a call. Turns out he hadn't even thought of the car for years. If I wanted it, I could have it. So I strapped it to the Blazer and hauled it home.
Now I'm having some issues with the photo sharing for some reason so if you want to have a look I hope it's not too much bother with a youtube video and a facebook album link. Anyway, here they are.
