Old sports sedan mk2 rebirth

Postby mattj » Thu Jul 19, 2012 9:31 pm

Hi all

I've just won this old sports sedan/club car off eBay others may have seen in on there. Decided to take a gamble on it as it was cheap. Does anyone have any ok pictures of the car or information of old owners etc? It's in Victoria an used to run a 350 chev the ad said. Running full commodore suspension at the moment and has an alloy cage.

My plans are to run a 6 cylinder race motor I have at home and use 15 x 10 rims and add a new cage and new color scheme at this stage :)

Here's the eBay shots in going to pick it up this weekend so I'll be able to put better shots up then but I'm excited to to have both a rally and track escort in my shed!

Cheers
Matty

You're a brave man Matty. Hope it turns out to be an ok thing.

I'm sure you and your dad will have the skills to put it right though.

well drove 17hrs in one day and went and picked up the escort..

seems to have been a good gamble. the car has been not used for some time but has lots of good bits in it and has had a lot on engineering put through it. The switch panel has the old cams race meeting stickers on it from 1991-1993. full watts link rear, fullt rose jointed and adjustable front end etc..

and one massive hole where a turbo 350 chev used to live!

plans are to clean it up, and so more metal back in where it has been taken out and see what happens :)

few better shots from loading up and getting it in the shed
