Aaron, I have known about your shell for quite some time. It is a very rare shell indeed, its not one of the 909 ones but is an original 1986 motosport shell. These were made to group N spec so had all the brackets etc where as the 909 ones were lightweight group A spec and made in 1989 .

All the original group A and N cars inc the race RS500s were built from the same shell as yours. Very few race/rally cars used the later 1989 909 shells as they came about to late as the cars by then were being phased out.

I bet theres very few left, if any as they all got used up, hence Ford getting Karmann to build a new batch in 89

Perfect for restoring an original race/rally car with.

It will have the correct early bulkhead, tow eyes etc etc unlike the 1989 shells
