well i have nearly finished building my impreza huge spec, just needs spraying up,But my heart is with the cossie,

im only 19 so, i wanted to buy a mrk 5 escort, is this the version i need to put the cossie kit on?

are the replica kits all fibreglass? If so i will do some sheel metal to finish them off to prevent cracks.

i have an impreza 4x4 base, which im sure i can make fit to the escort shell ive seen a scooby rear wheel drive system in one,so im sure its possible. i was going to use a big turbo cossi lump, with box and loom + the management and build like a kit car dash with a st800 dash display.
i will join up at propshaft, ovisly custom made, and i think i mite haft to run cossie front drive shafts, hubs and custom mounts for wish bones and suss, i will be seem welding the whole front end making custom top mounts and a full cage to give it extra strengh as there will be a big transmission tunnel.

could you let me know what model escort i need, 3 door, whats the best rep kit, what engine and box am i looking for, and any hiddin detail. hes a few pics of my impreza
