Default how many crystal blue sapphire's

just picked up my new crystal blue sa[[hire on an f plate,
wondered if anyone new how many were made, is a fantastic colour, veiwed it in the dark and picked it up in the dark, went to the petrol station, didnt even recognise the car under lights,
it was only bought as a donar car but am seriously thinking of restoring it back to its origonal glory!

not sure milky,
the car is complete and mechanicly sound, the shell is a little rusty and would need a full respray, am gonna keep it,
it has a broken rear light which shows some clear light, if i had another rear light unit laying about i wouldnt be sitting here on the pc,lol,
but knowing my luck, if i went out and had a play now i'd surely get nicked,

my initial project was a rear wheel drive escort cossie, tracked down an ex wrc escos shell that had no id, payed my money and picked up the bare shell, looked into getting all the running gear but as the shell was wrc spec i would need wrc spec running gear, and even second hand i would of had to sell my nan three times over and then some, decided to buy a 2wd saph and try the bits on and see if the can be modified to fit,
went round to look at the saph not knowing what colour it was, turned out to be crystal blue, fell in love with the car, am now selling the escos wrc shell and gonna sink all the cash i get back from that into the crystal saph,

I used to own a mint crystal blue sapph which i loved and wish id never sold it, i sold it to buy an RS focus then sold that for an RS500. It will be worth it mate and not many good ones left either, be nice to see another one on the road.
