As above really. Just saw a manual one on eBay for the first time ever and wondered if anybody had ever made a project out of one of these luxury barges?

Could have interesting results if someone did lol

Guy i know has put a calibra turbo motor in a carlton, so thats kind of similar i guess.

Cant really see much point though, if you want an interesting scorpio with an engine worth a few grand that you are going to fit in it, put an LS2 in it not a poxy old over priced YB

Yes - Ford.

they built a few for test purposes -when they commisioned Cosworth to build the original YBB, they had to commit to an order for 15,000 units but only needed 5000 for the 3dr at the time so needed a vehicle for the other 10,000 - they ended going down the saff cos route though instead
