    I remember that car when it was outside a bike shop in canvey island a few months ago,it was for sale back then. Didnt look at it in too much detail but noticed it had a cossie intercooler in it. I think he was also down southend in it the other night at passion ford meet,so a mate told me,he was doing burnouts in it with no windscreen in it cos it broke on the way there,must of been freezing

    cool cheers mate, yeah its a pinto turbo bloke from round my way wants to do a deal with my unfinshed cossie mk1 for rallying. Not sure yet but seeing it tommorow night as his mate lives in the next road (small world). Cossie engine would be staying for a future project or maybe for the capri. Dunno yet don`t want a shitter as my shell is proper solid.

    Yep i saw it at the passionford meet the last time it was on, was ok but dont think it had the strengthened strut tops but did have the boot floor bit and chassis skids so was a bit Looked ok but imo carl i think you should just do yours man, like they say the grass is always greener but you should stick with what you know (as your shell is mint....and i seen it too! so just get it done!)

    It was at the ace cafe tonight getting a good thrashing, The turbo was glowing red when he popped the bonnet!
    Went really well though i thought, although it did seem to be getting some stick.
