i saw this last nite funny enough and was going to post a thread as it looked good with the pictures he posted but that welding is rough as fook and i defo dont like the standard cossie rear suspension turrets with that shit bit of pipe welded on top of it , if he had a bad crash in that the rear of that cage would do fook all apart from the fact that you might have a few cds poles in the back of your head. now ive seen that picture the Ł15,000 price tag is way way over the odds , its a shame really as looking at it last nite it looked really good and could be made in to something really special

cheers paul

looks like he may have got the cossie for free if its untaxed or a 165 (as screen ticket suggests)

i'd wanna know its status too, will be a cat c/d with it bein thru salvage, altho it wont be a big deal on a car like that its nice to be clean huh- deffo requires agree'd valuation insurance

Shame really as some of the work looks alright in the pics, the cage is a massive let down, should of just made one for it rather than bodge a Fiesta one into it when its running a Sierra floorpan ! durr.

It's Darren that owns Greens Body Repairs in Kings Norton Business Park I bought a AP 6 Paddle clutch off him a while back and had alook at it then. I didn't notice the rear turrets at the time but it does look abit dodgy.
