Just wondering if anyone remembers this cabby or know if it's still on the road if so whereabouts?

got to say that looks pretty nice im sure ive seen that parked outside junction 28 about a year ago

 

yeah ive got some pics of that on my pc somewhere, does look good.

 

Is that the one that has a full 4x4 cossie convertion done at BBR?

 

thats a nice cabby

 

I love that colour blue

 

nah tiff that aint the one.

 

Not sure what's been done to it since I saved that thread, have had it in my favorites for ages and kept it when I re-booted!

 

You know the one i mean though?

 

theres a guy on the cabriolet owners club who has a blue fully blown
4x4 cossie cab, he owns a few cars inc a rally escos.

also there was another one doin the for sale ads in the car mags, think
it was on ebay as well, nice car, lots of money spent.

plus i remember a mag feature on one, looked similar to above, bloke had sent some big dollars on it, stood him at 40k or summit.

 

 

sure that was in ford mag many moons ago at the time there was only two that were known, lovely mota

 

was an interesting read, saying about all the trouble he had as he wanted the wheels to sit centre in the arches.

was on 18" rondells iirc.

 

yes i remeber that bit too rscat

 

no mate your thinking of a fast ford mag from 99 that had REAL cossie arches but that never had a cossie engine


the one tiff is on about is from a 96 or 97 fast ford mag where he kept the escos floor pan but welded it to a cossie top half with box section along the chassis rails and fitted a cossie it to it,,,,,,,,, that has some SERIOUS work done to it , total rebuild and weld together in the interest of keeping the original cossie plate on a cabrio


can you tell that my perfect car was a escort cosworth cabrio up until i grew up

 

nah this was defo a 4x4 cossie im on about, doubt id have read it if it wasnt cossied

i might take a pile of mags when i go for a shit and see if i can find it

 

anyone got the rough year it was as i have 150 mags to look through

 

b-bal wont answer as hes off looking at mags to prove me wrong

 

started something now!!

 

been in my collection already just the white telephone getting cold now so a break in order) missus calls it the library)

 

the 1st one ever done was owned and built in coventry

 

the one with the steel cossie arches wasnt actually cossied,,,,,,, the one that was STRIPPED TO A FLOOR PAN was cossied

merc at rs autos also made a mk4 cabrio cossie too,, might have been another merv though

 

this one im about was a total strip down and rebuild, chassis mods and everything, was definatley cossie engined.

 

no the one with the steering mods to line the wheels up was the non cossie one as it never had a cossie floorpan to retain the id hence no need for steering mods


grab you mags and prove me wrong puppy

 

Thats my old car!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! i sold it on here last year !!!!!!
its still in my sig !!!

it was fibreglass kit with rs 2000 interior and cvh turbo engine which was chipped etc. best bit was them wheels were 19"s. my mate built it and got bored just as he finished it so i had it off him. but the rear wheels rubbed like hell when i put the Kids in the back .











i like my sons finger in the last pic best!!!!!!!!!!!!
!!

 

classic just noticed it, i like his style

 

quality, I did try and take a peek in ure photobucket to see if you had more pics of it in there!

any idea where it is now?

 

that car belonged to mervin and was 4x4 and cosworth powerd he lives just down the road,dont know wear car is know.

 

i sold it to some one on here near cambridge i think. it was up for Ł4,200 and he came up , nice chap with his mate, drove it and said it needed setting up properly etc and would i take Ł3,800.........................i said yeah no probs , he looked shocked i didnt ask for more..................but i knew that i had only payed Ł2,900 for it a couple of days before cos mymate was sicktodeath of it and wanted to go jap !!!!!!!!

it did shift well and all the kids in my street were out side the house for an hour all taking pics on there phones of it when i got it !!!!!!!!
