the only way i wouldnt break it is if someone offered me another cosworth or mk1/2 escort .... but as i said i would build it into a standard car as thats how i would make the most money.... as my shell is worth what £1500-2k as a restore s1 with history but if i built it back up to a full car its worth 5k+ all day long and it would only cost me about a grand as i still have alot of it....
plus ive got about 5k worth of bits on it to sell seperately and whats a fully modified s1 with 270+bhp worth lets say 7.5k so i would make 2.5k for a bit of messing about...
