Default Ex Thundersaloon Mk2

Somone Posted this up on a local Mini forum, thought a few of you might like to see it.


Here is the "company car" Its now just a fg front and rear end at the mo (rs200 snoop front) the only metal is the a,b and c pillars and the roof.

Its an ex thundersaloon test bed, the car that went on to race, this cars younger sister won quite a few thunder championships apparently.

Were going to grab a shed load of cds tubing and go to work on it, everything tig welded and a 2mm wall thickness used everywhere. Its going on a jig on the floor after we do away with a few other cars in teh workshop.

We have a c/damaged 03 M5 that is going to be used the rear diff is being used along with the modified irs, engine will use t/b's but thats a long way off yet, the manual box will be used too. Its 11" wider then the xpac mk2 escort and will have 14x19 split rims on ithe rear
