Paul @ North Yorks has my old shell, it's soooooo much better than that, and I believe may be for sale? Massage him Carlo, see what he says, It's pricey, but is the best shell I've ever seen.

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
theres a few on turbosport,mines one of them

I remember this car. Puddy did it used to be around the Guildford area? I think it had a bad smash around 1998 i think.

On another note i was chatting to your mate Mick Stevens on saturday. His focus is even better in the flesh.

Mike was the one that built and owned the escort!

he sold it to a guy called scott,minus engine and box.

I got it running again for scott,who then lost it and reversed it in to a

lamppost,at speed.

He had it repaired ,and sold it on to another guy I knew called ian marelli,

who spent a lot on it and sold it on again a few years ago.

That was the last I saw of it.

They were the good old days coming back from southend,me with my old pinto (which was keeping up with the cossies) And my brother in the blue mk2. And Jason in the orange beast,it had 395bhp back then with a wrc iha turbo on it. Its a totally differant car to the one in question.
Here are some pics of the car in the video. It should be out again next year with 6 speed sequential box and 500bhp

i know its not the same one but if youve given up hope, what about this one, seems to have all the hard work done. http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/MK2-ESCORT-GRP...QQcmdZViewItem

Just ready to add your own wheels etc, could be as nice as the other one i would recon.

Trying to start a wee project myself too (not that ive ever finised the kitcar yet ). Been trying to get some info together before i start, still got my old mk4 estate and been thinking about selling the GT4 and bringing it back out with cvh turbo and rwd . Cant wait to get started but finding info is proving dificult.
