track car dilemma, help!!!
As most of you know this is my track car an xr4x4 with a cossie 24v engine, the car has evolved in the 3 years I have owned it from a rusty knacker to a nice well presented reasonably quick and most importantly reliable track car complete with 4x4 cos suspension/brakes.It is sat in my unit now ready for it's next outing and needs nothing bar a wash..
BUT I have just been offered a k plate 4x4 saph cosworth very cheap with minor front end damage (needs 1 wing and the front crossmember in front of rad) the engine, box, front engine bed, suspension etc.have been removed for a kit car project the rest of the car is there interior, kit, rear axle wheels etc
now then I could quite easy fix the saph then transplant the front end engine, box, suspension from my xr into it and even swop over the cage etc..
the car would be more presentable then and to be honest I have always prefered the saph to the hatch and a saph cos track car really appeals to me with out the high costs of a yb ..
what you reckon??

means a lot of time and effort and bit of money for a car thats no quicker and drives the same
but it will look nicer so its just what you'd rather have

As above I can't see the point. Xr4x4's are getting quite rare these days so that makes it very cool and you wouldn't see any benefit on track for all of your time and effort.
