It really is a great car, and here in Brazil the sport springs and the schocker are extremely hard to find, Congrats on the car my friend, and keep going the good work.

For some years, latest 80s to early 90s, VW and Ford had a "partnership" in latin america, named Autolatina. Most car of both had the same VW engine. But CHT is a Ford engine.
Kanabyz, nice car... in a nice condition, congrats.

I have an 89 XR3 SuperSport that here in Brazil, is a special edition, with 1000 cars, commonly named Benetton edition. XR3 is White with green strips in bumpers and uses a VW motor from Gol GTS, an AP 1.8s.

Hugs,
Lucas
