It'll cost at least £1000, I'd imagine it will be even more but that's a conservative estimate

Its alot of custom work and you need to buy a Sierra or escort to take all the parts off then

And tbh your donor car will cost more than the car will be worth
If it doesn't fit,
force it,
If it breaks,
It needed replacing anyway :thumbs:

To be honest i don't care about losing money on the project, It will be the only one in the area and a real talking point if i can pull it off.

I've seen a few pre-built but i'd rather build then buy a car like that.
