i have a '99 red escort which is my baby, i love my car! the only thing its starting to rust on the edge of the trunk and on the driver's door. the paint is even starting to bubble. is there anything i can do to reverse this cuz i'm gonna need to have this car last me prob for quite awhile. also how many miles have people been able to rack up on their escorts before it finally kicks the bucket for good? i'm at about 100,000 and hopefully i can keep it going for awhile more.
