Ya I'd say go ahead & crunch the Astro van. But destroying that Escort just doesn't seem right. We had a white wagon with a 5 speed that was cool as hell. Think we hauled a log cabin kit in/on it once ...
'Member a buddy o mines brother had a "GT" 2dr hatchback. Don't laugh, that thing hauled a**! I am not kidding. Turbocharged 2.3, stiffer springs & sway bars. 'Course his was tweaked a lil bit but boy that thing ran like a scalded cat!
