Love A35’s! Even a fit A series one can boogie! Be stocking with a K!
Scimatars seem to be getting a lease of life these days, soft spot for them myself
I have a 3.0 V6 Alfa engine just begging to go into one. Been rolling around in my head for ages.

That is stunning, by Clifford, I'd guess you're talking about my dad! We now have no scimitars!
Would like to see that getting build n finished.freind of mine has a 3dr sierra bought included full rs exterior and interior stuff and theres a volvo 5 pot turbo going in will be dressed as a focus engine nice modern suspension and brakes considering doing a touring car rep so black texeco car or white mobil 1 hes just purchased a donor t5 too
Oh my. That’s right on the money. Serious consideration about one now. Thanks for posting yours it’s a beauty.I did this to a Scimitar. Clifford, you may remember me leaving a note enquiring about buying that one in your yard about 8 years ago
Holy moly I just read though the build, what a project and what a piece of ingenuity and engineering. I was on buying a Camaro later in the year but after seeing this the ideas are going mad in my head. Only thing is I wouldn't have the talent to do that work. I'd be stumped at how to fit an Alfa V6 to an auto!Darryl's thread on RetroRides for this car was fantastic.

Since it's being re-shelled, I wouldn't think a colour change will affect it much. You've got the chance to build it how you like it.View attachment 194739 Guys we have got a doner car to rebuild the rs turbo into and the painter really wants to paint it black which would mean a colour change from red .Personally I had a black rs new back in 1991 and would be keen on going black but I wonder how it would affect the cars value .you can change the tax book colour can’t you or is that a real balls to do .The car will never be a showcar but will be a well restored but useable classic so I’m unsure what way to go .what would you advise ??identical car to my old one above .
Escorts are out of reach of the average working man now unfortunately same as the Toyota ect .a good build escort is going to stand you £30k plus now unless you can do most of the work yourself ,which I can’t unfortunately .Fully built N/A F20c powered AE86 or Mk1/Mk2 Escort.
