Default Project FakeCos. (Escort Cosworth Replica) might be up for sale.

Due to a few personal problems with family and work which I don't want to go into, the FakeCos might have to go. Due to the nature of sale I'd like to move it on complete as a project which needs finishing, but I won't sell it for peanuts so can arrange a price on however much of it you want or single items.

Breif spec;

  • MK6 Escort SI 1997 Shell. (P reg) 5 owners. Converted to small turbo MK5 spec.
  • Spotlessly clean shell. Never welded nore does it require any, fully undersealed. This car has been stripped to a bare shell, all glass out and there is not a single spot of rust on it. It truely is mint.
  • Car was going to be a very good replica using mostly genuine parts. It has the full rear quater panels which go above the boot line, full front fibreglass bumpers and the rear bumper has the cut out for the exhaust, as per original. It also has the correct, year appropriate fuel filler flap.
  • The shell has had extensive prep work to get the fibreglass panels straight for paint and the car is currently ready for high build then painting.
  • I swapped all the locks, fuel pipe and lock, ignition barrel etc so it runs off the same key which is the key coded to the ECU/PATS ont he RS2000 loom.
Spec;
Body
  • As said, 100% rot free shell and closures. You wont find cleaner.
  • Fully black undersealed
  • Proper fibreglass panels
  • Genuine front grill with unbroken clips
  • RS2000 bulge bonnet
  • Rot free delocked tailgate
  • Genuine Whaletail
  • Genuine lower spoiler
  • Genuine mint cossie popouts
  • Rot free delocked doors
  • Fibreglass rear bumper with correct exhaust exit
  • Genuine front bumper (needs finishing, can do if deal is negotiated) with genuine lower meash, washer jets and tow eye cover.
  • MK5 Escort headlights, sidelights, amber side repeators and standard MK5 rear lights.
Chassis
  • Baby blue powdercoated front subframe with yellow powdercoated ARB
  • Baby blue powder coated rear disc beam with yellow powdercoated ARB
Brakes, wheels and Suspension
  • Fully Powerflex polybushed and all new Ford bolts throughout.
  • RS2000 disc brakes all round with Goodrich braided lines.
  • KW V1 coilovers
  • Brand new copper brake lines and braided fuel lines throughout
  • Speedline 'Group N' Escort Csowrth rally car wheels with 4 good tyres.
Interior
  • Imacculate MK6 RS2000 interior
  • Genuine Cosworth handbrake surround/arm rest and dashboard centre console
  • MK5 Escort dashboard 150MPH MK5 white dials
  • Genuine Cosworth 'Banana Pod'
Running gear
  • 95k RS2000 engine and MTX gearbox with brand new clutch
  • K&N induction kit
  • Custom exhaust and decat
  • MK6 RS2000 loom and ECU
  • Clifford G5 alarm
The car just requires paint and putting back together. I don't think there is a single part whcih needs to be bought. Anyone who's interested contact me by PM or on 07966 351 211

I'll put a guide price on of £1,500 as it's cost more than that in parts without all my time spent on it to get it upto scratch, to abide by rules but get in touch to negotiate, but don't offer me £500 for the lot because that'll be a waste of time lol.

Will get better pics for anyone genuinely interested. Build thread can be found here.

I know, but needs must. There's just a bit of uncertainty over various things and it would probably be for the best to just sell it, cut my losses and use the money to finish the RST. As it's already in bits it wouldn't be hard to break it but would rather just move it on as it is.

If no ones interested I'll have no choice but to finish it. But, to complete it needs paint which will cost me £800, then with what I've already spent on it I'd have to sell it at a loss. Not something I need right now

It is a very, very clean shell which is why it's an ideal project for someone.

I'll see what happens.
