Default gartrac,cossy powered rwd series 1, £8500, p/f feature next month

hi, i have decided to sell my track toy its my pride and joy, it really is a rare car, and awsome fun,
ita a mk 3 escort prepared by gartrac, which has been converted to rwd, and its running a full turbo charged 320 bhp cosworth engine, where do i start?
The car has just under gone a 2k full respray and new series 1 graphics, so its immaculate,the car is based on a mk2 escort, front legs, steering rack,cross member, etc, the car has a atlas rear axle with a motorsport lsd,4 linked,turreted,whole car is rose jointed no bushes at all, coilovers all round,4x4 cosworth discs all round,full cage which goes into the engine bay, fuel cell, bucket seats 4 pt harnesses,twin fuel pumps and swirl pot all in the rear of the vehicle, all fuel lines and brake pipes go through the car which are braided,adjustable pedal box, bias brakes,the engine is a 2wd cosworth engine which had a headgasket done about 9k miles ago, its got a t5 gearbox with quick shift fitted, its running a ap 6 paddle clutch,this car is the perfect wolf in sheeps clothing, i only use it as a toy but all lights wipers etc work so can be used on the road, and the good thing is its on a b plate so can be mislead as a s1!!! ive probably missed loades so dont hesitate to get incontact.
Overall this car is stunning, its not concourse due to it being a track car, but theres not 1 dent scratch on the car, its such fun to drive, a sideways mk3 escort.
Many thanks, may consider a p/x
07702832283 £8500 ono or serious offer
pics will be added in the morning when i take some new ones!!
having probs putting pics up, its for sale on piston heads under rs cosworth section!!

advert says built using gartrak parts.....not built on new shell i guess previously registered as a rally car explains it. they used new shells and those were the Q plates i think.

Why is it any better than a sierra floor converted car. Surely they're both "cut and shut", only one has more antique mechanicals than the other.
