Escort cosworth 909 shell for sale. £600 (Was £650)

There are a few flakey bits that have started in the garage since it was stripped….surface rust (wire wheel in a drill would fix it up easy), nothing a rub down and respray wouldn't sort out, i've tried to photo all the bad bits. The shell is stitch welded all over and is genuine 909 with a date stamp of of xx/xx/92 near the bonnet catch area, no numbers stamped on the shell anywhere except the date stamp near the catch . Has a plate for the exhaust to go over the beam like the proper rally cars but this seems to have been beaten flat with a hammer in an effort by previous owner to fit rear seats :S.
I've photo'd the corners of the old roofskin, there is still some residual skin left in the corners as whoever fitted the sunroof skin brazed the corners (will come off in 2 mins with a torch or grind off). The shell has x4 good wings which have all been arch rolled at some stage. The shell also has the remains of an old cage with bars poking through to the strut tops (were cut off in i/s of bulkhead…my plan was to mate a new cage to this and sleeve it to join). There were chassis engine mounts installed in the past as the plates are still there on the inner front wings. There are Kevlar under body panels to protect the rear of the floor from pebbledash that so many of these 909s suffer from. The cage mounting points are all in place and the rear turrets have the proper strengthening plates on them.

At the minute the shell has x2 doors, front and rear lights, heat shielding and matting in the transmission tunnel and Kevlar underbody floor plates (to stop gravel rash presumably). The underside of the car is perfect, no scabs anywhere and it has been undersealed previously.
The plate in the bulkhead where the pedalbox mounts too has been butchered in the past, I have a laser cut replacement for a bias pedalbox that can come with the shell (x2 separate master cyl cutouts) or you could quite easily repair this plate to fit the std stuff back on it again.
The shell has genuine skirts fitted atm, I’m planning on removing these as they’re not included in the price but am open to leaving them on if the buyer wants me too and we can agree a price.
It’s also got an escos steering columb fitted but will come with no front end rolling gear (stripping to sell separately)…so you get a shell on a bread trolley essentially, will need trailering away.

Worth what I’m asking just for the wings/scrap value….if I don’t get my asking price I’ll have to break out the plasma, rip off the wings and save them for a rainy day….I don’t want to scrap a useable cheap shell for someone though so please take it off my hands as it’s majorly in the way!!!! I need this gone in the next fortnight so please bear this in mind….also 1st come 2st served, I will not save it for anyone…if you want it come and look and leave a deposit if you must.

I’m in Erdington, Birmingham, B24



























I have other items for sale too but not the time to list them, I’m moving out within the next week or two so the shell has to go! I have the main bent sections of a custom cages rollcage (I.E. all the non-straight bar sections) that could go with this for the right price and a host of other bits knocking around so if you come for the shell bring plenty of wonga for other bits too

Pm me for my number, I’ll try to be as frequent logging on as I can.

Cheers
