Best Ford barn find?
Well, ok I knew it was there.
But Escort WRC would be mine.
This is the first time it has ever been washed or out of the workshop for 4 years.
Still work in progress

Harks back to the days when you could watch WRC and then buy your favourite from the show room.

Oh wow. I think last time I saw an update for it, it didn't have a gearbox!
Is it a Skyline box? What diffs are you using? What kind of gearing have you managed to get?
Would be interesting to see a full spec for the car if you get a couple of minutes!
