Kenny

thanks for the pics. always interesting to see how others build their cars (yayaya....dont we all steal ideas sometimes ).

I would love to post pics of mine but it has not been painted yet and looks terrible... Poor lil cossie has been standing near a river for 3 yrs so it looks awful. still i am amazed that it hasnt rusted at all, only the sills seem to have a bit surface rust to them, thats all (common spot on escorts?)

As far as my setup goes i will do the following (after measuring corner weights when car is done):

LEDA or Bilstein Coilover
adj. lower track control arm
poly bushes front n rear
nylon steering bushes
aluminum beam mounts rear
aluminum diff mount rear

I have to say im tempted to go for bilstein, their pss9 or whatever they called it proved to be the best on my 996 turbos and GT2s. Hockenheim and Nürburgring were fantastic to drive with that setup.

So thats the parts i will use for the preliminary testing, i know theres a lot more parts (rear axle, etc.) but i have to start somewhere

Im in switzerland Kenny and all we got here are group a escorts, havent seen a real wrc car around....
