Default Trying to find an Eski

People,

My brother had an eski about 7 or 8 years ago in Vic and he sold it, im trying to track it back down to see how its going.. all i know about it is that some lads from the country bought it when he sold it.

it had a reco engine - Magenta Coloured (yes pretty much hot pink!!)

This is one feature that im sure people will recognise!
It was originaly painted that colour as a joke to call my brother abit of a pansy but it was very popular with everyone that saw it.

Hope someone knows how its doing!!! the car ment alot to me and just wanted to be reassured that it was having the absolute daylight thrashed out of it!! i cant stand a beautiful car going to waste on a 70 year old collector

Take care everyone!!

Luke

2 door, 2ltr, Manual, Mk2 and original colour was Blueie green colour.. you will know what i mean.

Was in mint condition when sold!!

Sorry but i dont really know much else about it i could probably scratch up the old rego # but probably wont be of much use!! the person that owns it will know it has or had a magenta engine in it

If anyone knows of a better place to be looking for an escort please let me know.. i.e forum wise

Luke
