Good effort - did you find sourcing a new shell dificult? Is the work finished?

Cheers

 

looks like a very good canvass...are you just painting it mallard green again?

 

I bought the Grp.N shell in ´01 from Richter Motorsport in Germany. Don´t think they produced anyone later

She was finished in ´05 and i´ve covered 700 miles yet, as i don´t have the time

will post up pic´s later

cheeRS MAX

wow thats a shame about your old one will be nice to see it back on the road again

 

Nice to see it being reshelled ,i take it you are from wein in austria

 

Brian

 

Bet you was gutted when you crashed it! are you going to build it up to look exsactly the same as befor?

 

Will look forward to more recint pictures. Did you do the work yourself? Just wondering how many people really know how to work on EsCo's over there.

top job

 

very nice in green, but even better in silver.

you have done an excellent job building it.

 

Nice rebuild

 

"Ain't she a bute" springs to mind

What do others at car shows think of EsCos's in Austrailia?

Cheers

 

Nice! Be happy you got a new shell... Cosworth ones are very rare and expensive. I'm glad to see you did a very tidy job with the new shell!

Greetings from good old Bavaria!

 

thx for comment´s

Beautiful, great work

Only thing i dont like are the "Sorted RS COSSIE" badges

Spot on otherwise

 

He's from austria m8

Good man for rebuilding her,looks nice in silver.

 

That's right. I don't like boot badges after all, thats why I throwed mine away as far as possible and IMHO these crome style badges don't look to good after all...

 

as said above I´ve changed and sold many thing´s from the car.

only the badge is there aswell

MAX

 

Wrong decision. Badge should have been sold, not the rest

 

silver

 

top job

 

foooook me, you know how to bend em mate and also how to build em

 

Owned Damn

Question still stands - what do people think of your car in Austria then?

 

lovely car the build is a total credit to you, excellent work

 

haven´t got so much comments as she´s only been out for the 1/4 mile race in `05

Apart from my friend´s not much people are involved in this project.
maybe `07 is a better season to go for a show.

thank´s to all for the great comment´s

MAX

 

Really nice cossie you got there, lot of work gone into that and it looks mint

 

really top work mate

Shame to keep it locked away tho, get out and use it

 

There was a Meeting in Rauchwart/Punitz in 2001. Hot but nice. Also with 1/4 mile.

Just make your Cossie ready and start the season with the Frühjahrsausfahrt in Hartkirchen!

 

I was there in 2001, that was a ford meeting, in ´05 it´s called Racewar´s.
Don´t think my car will be ready before June , so much part´s are beeing sold and currently ecu is with mike for a few mod´s
