Thanks again everybody it was fun to do  and it was a wild trip down  with that in the back of my wife's Ford Escape ( not escort !  upside)  one good bump
and that latch would have popped so thank god for smooth roads, plus the wife was nervous about a machine in her new Vehicle ( but better gas milage won)



Nice work Pat.   Does everything work on it?  There isn't much graphics on it   Was it like that from the factory?

 And yeah every thing works on it , it was fun to get operating again.

Great job Pat!!
Hauled many machines in our Escape. Cut a tennis ball to cover the lower center rear door latch post.
6" cardboard tube to roll machines over and in to the cargo space.

Only whine I have is no proper tie down points for the rear hatch to the frame. I put on a class two hitch and loop a long bunge cord around the rear wiper blade post and connect to where the trailer emergency chains would hook. Works for short hauls. Just no drag racing/hard launches :-)
It's 2001 with 135,000 hard miles. Will be retired soon and will buy another Escape. Friend has one with 240,000.
