Ford escort mk2.

the shell is completely Group 4 spec, seam welded, large tunnels, large turrets, watts 6 link rear all rose jointed, coil overs, bolt in roll cage skid plated sills strengthened, etc.

power plant is a rebuilt Vauxhall 2.0xe motor (great oil pressure as you would expect from a rebuilt motor with new oil pump water pump, re-bored +50 arp shells mains bolts etc). running twin 45 Webers, and a sbd motorsport ecu management system cam belt pulleys etc replaced as old in 2019.

The gearing is on the high side (2.8i axle rebuilt lsd type9 5 speed box 15"wheels) as was only built to show drive on the road etc and in hindsight i should of replaced the rose joints with something a little more conservative (nylon ones) for road use as although it was built to group 4 spec shell it wasn't really my intention to ever rally it but to drive it as a road car, Having said that the thoughts were there that if anyone wanted to rally it a few alterations and she's ready to go the shell is the most expensive build in a rally car and the power plant obviously.

But the actual power plant is good as a starter motor for the novice driver (188bhp and lightweight car) with only the diff and wheels needing changing for gearing purpose, but i know if your not the novice and very qualified you will want a better power plant gearbox and diff if your looking for an actual rally car. So there are plenty of people looking for these items i have as a power plant so if your intentions are to rally it and think its a tad too much make me a offer for the rolling shell (bring your own wheels) i'm sure i can sell the motor gearbox and diff wheels on.

Im also open to possible px maybe a cossie rwd or 4x4 something more usable for my needs or an american V8 pick up truck, something i can use as an everyday car as i do low miles mainly. possibly even a rs focus?? try me.

BUT BE UNDER NO ILLUSION THIS CAR IS STUNNING LOOKING SOUNDING ETC and im not gonna give it away sorry. talk to me im not gonna bite you happy to chat any time if im free too
