Title: Time to let her go!whats it worth?
Post by ro284 on Oct 26^th, 2012, 12:00pm

Sadly my silver scorp estate 2-3 has come to the end of the road, i realised this last week when the rear shocks started to get a bit rough and leaking, so i thought i would sell her, this morning i stuck for sale in the windows, and thought i'd park it down the main road, i put 420 on in it or offers, but when i set off, there is a dreadfull noise from the rear axle! so i took off the for sale signs, and drove it back slowly, it's a shame, its a lovely car, shame about the sills, So it's for scrap now, i fitted a new cylinder head last year, fortunately i do have another estate 2-9 only done 80k, but green! so i will work on that one now anyone scrapped one lately,

Rob. A set of Sierra shocks, which are what I and others are using are really cheap. They are not self levelling but do a perfectly good job. :) Have a read of This link (http://www.fordscorpio.co.uk/cgi-bin/yabb/YaBB.pl?board=admin;action=display;num=1282569538) which details all the enquiries etc. The Monroe link on Highlanders post at the bottom of the first page is what you want. ;)
