I reckon that there was no coolant system, it was stuck into 1st gear, maybe a welded diff so only 1 shaft needed fitting, then starter wires & clutch & throttle cables, & pin mount engine brackets, & about 6 months of training

What a load of bollocks, so much to say but what's the point. I knew it was the one with the MK3 Escort, how I would love that shell to build an RS1600i rep lol

There would have to be some telescopic driveshafts on the thing as well which probably wouldnt be the most reliable lol.

The WRC rally technicians are the boys who really know how to change stuff quick.

LOL! So was that escort! At least a rally car actually works reliably before and after some swift transplantage. I imagine that escort would blow up / fall to bits if it was driven any distance lol

With real bolts its actually really easy to change a clutch in one of those aswell.
