Wow nice find! I know what I'd do with it, have it on some nice 16" steel wheels slightly lowered with a 300bhp Zetec turbo under the bonnet will be awesome with an st170 running gear in it. I'd love to have the time to build something like that. Keep us updated matey

That's too nice to ruin as a track car. Road car sleeper is what I'd do with it. As said above, a nice discreet engine install with plenty of power on some steelies.
