Default Ex Police Sapphire Cosworth 4x4 Restoration

My latest project is a Sapphire Cosworth 4x4 Ex police car. This is the car that was on the tv series blues and twos in the 90s, long thought to be dead but it’s been on a cdz number plate since 1996. The car needs a serious amount of work but I think it definitely needs saving

Some pics of the car in service





And how it looks now







It wont be a quick project, first job is to get the head back on and get it running as it came off the road due to head gasket failure. Try and scrape it through an mot to get the original number plate back on it.

I have 2 really good sierra shells to cut up for panels, but 3 weeks before I bought this I bought a 2wd sapphire. Now I’ve ended up with 3 Cossie’s which was never the plan, so will have to get the 2wd up for sale in the spring before any real work starts on this.
