They're like Fiat side indicators - usually only on Italian models, but in conjunction with white front indicators so maybe jusy added here
The reason they look like Fiat ones is that they are probably Carello Lights. German Built Mk2's has Carello lights (mine does), while the British/Irish built ones had Lucas lights. The German market Escort had them side indicators and I think the Scandinavian ones had them.
<anorak> Also, it's not a late Mk2, it's an early one built before '77 as it has the early grill. The bumper is a Ghia one </anorak>0 -

I'm a total anorak in that I've got one of them and a 1977 one at home in the press......
There was a 940 MkI at Terenure last year, and there's a chap near Laragh has a minter or two in sheds - uses them for movie work AFIK. The doors clunk shut like a Lincoln Continental
( The only mismatch on one of them was 'ESCORT' in Mk5 lettering on the MkII ) 0 -

Yes, 2 X1/9s and a Tempra. Didn't know if they were worthy of this thread so I just threw it up here! Can get more pics if there is interest
Robbed of most good parts to save another X1/9 and practically forgotten about at this stage.... The red X1/9 has been around since 1986 and has held up well. The black one.... Hasn't!0 -
don't know if a tractor counts, just found it interesting. was up investigating the land around a house my dad has inherited that nobody has lived on since the 80's. a garage full of car related tat and this rotting away outside. dad says it's called a "grey ass" means nothing to me but i thought it was interesting.

A few cans of WD40, £420 for a bonnet and £30 apiece for the mudgards, you could do a lot worse than invest some summer days in getting it running

don't tempt me. i'd say mam would up and leave if myself or dad brought anymore old automotive ****e home to tinker with :pac:
having read the wiki link i wonder is it petrol or diesel engined now.
its literally standing in that exposed spot the last 35 years i believe, i'd say it'd take a lot more to get her going unfortunately.0 -

I remember being told about a similar yoke 30 years ago but couldn't find the field it was 'parked' in - eventually found (the tail of) it sticking up through the clay :mad:0 -
