Vauxhall Chevette ( Ford running gear)

Vauxhall Chevette,
2.1 pinto engine 160bhp
5 linked rear end
Bilstein Suspension
Shell mint, never welded
Vista orange, rolled rear arch's
13x8 ATS alloys
OMP seats, Astrali wheel
Handles like its on rails, 900kg with fuel in it so its nice and light
6 months tax and long mot.
£4000

1/3 of the price of the equivalent Mk1 escort, so will be a good investment

Will have forgotten loads so will update later and take some better pics today and post them up,

Cheers, auld
