  • right new plan....

    i am going after a good shell for my gp4 car instead of useing the mk2 mexico as it has come to me that the mexico's are getting harder and harder to find so i am going to restore the red/white mexico and when its done i might sell it as i might need the money

    after seeing what they sell for on ebay mine will be a very nice car and just as good as RNO 993W is.....

    so thats my plan ...

    i don't care that i will be using a standard car for my rally project as i will only be using it on the track and having some fun in...its not going to be a show car so it not being a rs don't matter

    am i doing the right thing....?????

      Too right mate, I went to look at my old Mexico today, and the guy says he was offered £16k for it !! yikes, he said no its not for sale.

      It's gonna be a a nice Rally car when its finished.

                        lol...yep i sure is...

                        here are some pics....as you can see she is mint BUT there is some damage to deal with and the fact there is some of the trim missing this makes it a good car to take for gp4

                        notice the shed load of wax everywhere...

                        the damage is not that bad all it needs is a front panel i get this free with the gp4 conversion if it needs one and it needs a x member and a little pull on the inner wing and another door and shell will be mint.....and a pair of wings but again i get these in the price of the conversion..

                        have a look...cheeRS

                          i forgot to say.....she is 2 owner and 31000 mile from new

                          the old girl that hit it hit another mk2.....lol.....some 14 years ago
                          and when it happend she opened the door onto a oncoming car and he hit it in a mk1 escort...pmsl.....so there was 3 escorts in the same crash...

                          the bloke i got it of asked her to buy it from the insurance co so she did for £150 and then sold it to the man i got it from
                          he wanted to make a rally car out of it so he got a brand new 14 point SD rollcage for it i got this in the sale aswell as a 5 speed box ready for a set of straight cut gears

                          so there you go full story.... ...i like it
