  • Anyone know the colour of Roger Clarks Cossack car?

    I am re-shelling my Group 4 Mk2 Escort and am going to change the colour scheme from Ford Motorsport (see below) to Roger Clark's Cossack car.

    Any comments, opinions would be great?

    Also anyone know what the name of the colour was?

    Anyone know where I can get a copy of the Cossack logo?
    Keep the shiny side up and the greasy side down!

    Hello and welcome to the site Geralds, I don't know the colour of the car but someone one here definitely will. If you PM Graceloc on here, He has a perfect replica of the Cossack 1800 and am sure will give you all the information you require.

      He got the graphics from someone near him, he would need to tell you where though, or maybe help you out ?

        Thanks for the photos Banishit they are perfect, as you can see from my old shell a lot of the stickers are available over here from clever graphics designers, the only sticker that may prove difficult is the main cossack logo

          Nobody can say for certain which exact colour red was used originally, but Pritch used Porsche Guards Red when he had POO505R rebuilt...it's about as close a match as anyone could figure out.

              Do you know who he used to get the logos printed? Is the black stripe down the side painted or did they use black vinyl?

                  Thanks mate, had it mixed up today and its a real fantastic red! We have the shell loaded up on my trailer and we are off to a place in the Aussie outback called Condoblin where a good friend of mine lives who was a car spray painter all his life and has now retired. I will put up the photos when I get back, thanks again!
