TBH mate its nearly 30 yrs old, It wouldn't suprise me if its not the original shell anyway.

Easy enough to put a Mex ID on a 1.3 auto
No,that is the original mex shell,well most of it any way

If this is the car i'm thinkin of then Alex ZVH has a vid of me behind this car on the A217 towards Southend & the car IS PROPA ! ! !

I had a Harvey 425hp engine in my Saph & this thing went, heard it was 450hp with AntiLag which i can believe ! Always wanted to see it again, but never did !

At that time it didn't go like 570hp, but believable 450 ! He pulled not me be only just noticable on the straights !

Are those the Monte Carlo arches ? or whatever there called ?

Just about to arch mine and liking the extra width on that Escort.


If you think that car is nice then you need to see the almost identical one someone is building on Turbosport

Puddy may be able to shed some light on that

When I eventually get mine done there is no way I'd sell it cos the mrs told me too.

She can pack her bags and fook off if she starts thinking like that

IF its the same one, SALL motorsport (next door to where Zoo motorsport USED to be) had it sat in the back of his garage when i was looking round for a cossie.

it was in bits back then, (getting on 2 years ago) but he might be able to
tell you where it is,, IF its the same one that is! definitly looks to be the same one.
