Driven daily until 2000, when temporarily replaced by a 1.8LX, and then loaned to my brother in law and then taken of the road in 2000 for restoreation!

2000-2007 lot of welding (wings, 3 part sills, 4x4 tunel conversion, etc)

Conversion from 1.8 Pinto RWD to 2.9 24V cosworth 4x4..

Moved house, had kids, sold 24V, now nearly 20 years since "Erika" was taken off the road, more rust, cracked windscreen.......

She has genuine cosworth bonnet, bodykit, leather recaro, etc..

Cant give up on her, can't sell her..

TT


I used to have a 2.0L dohc sapphire back in the late '90's that I planned on making a Cossie 4X4 rep with but it was too far gone, floor, sills, arches, wings all rotten and the rear window was held in with duct tape :lol:

2.9 Cossie engine that's from the Scorpio isn't it (or also found in hearses :shock: ) how many times have you been asked if it's for sale?
RUST IS LIGHTER THEN CARBON FIBRE

It was the Granda 24V (BOA), Not the scorpio (BOB)... I had a scorpio cosworth as a daily for a while, was quite good fun.

If I go V6 24V again it will be the Jaguar AJV6, it will fit in with a bit of a squeeeeeeez.


Had loads of people asking if it's for sale, had it on ebay once last year but pulled it as I could not let her go.
