Re: Escort van. Round 2 ding ding.
This is where the old Avometers come in handy as they are protected from overload by a cut out which you manually re-set. The Flukes blow an internal fuse when overloaded which is a ball-ache.

Neck killing me. Wife not good as she has intracranial hypertension and the impact caused her headaches. The lass in the fiesta said she was only creeping forward.

Oh FFS any chance you can retain salvage? Looks like it would pull straight ok again with a bit of a tug from a dozer or some portapower action

In fact Bub, if you can hang onto it I'll have it off you if you don't want it back.

All rear floor twisted. Ripped brake bias valve off of rear end and broken welds on driver side. Second escort I've had shunt in. Hoping for a quick payout to buy a new van.

Stick up some photos mate. Glad you are ok but would rather it hadn't happened to you.
Take painkillers for your neck when/ if possible, I guess Mrs Bub will be off to the hospital to get checked out with a CT scan?
