would make the other genuine ones more valuable, why don't you buy Frosty's white Sport shell?

great idea
get the best one you can find with super paintwork a mint engine bay full sevice history and a couple of concours trophies, then get the angle grinder and welder out and make it into the car it should have been

[Kel]

this was a concours car.

personally I was going to build a grp2 zaxspeed rep from a mex but now I think it would be best to build one froma std 2 door shell and save the mex's.

[hotrs2000]

I can't see why not, the car will still be a MEX and be used. Just keep it road legal and use it on the Lakes tour

[Frosticles]

Std shell and do what you like to it......Mex's are TOO PRECIOUS

[little fella]

just do it as long as you abuse it once its built

[petrolhead]

bash,you on the wind up again????

no i just think if you build a car thats away from standard form then you should make propper use of if. i.e if its got 45's on let people hear them screeming,, if its got uprated suspension lets see it sideways on it, if got big brakes lets see you braking later. just my opinion im sure you agree with me petrolhead
