Due to a change in plans I am considering selling my shell.

It is a 1991 (J-reg) painted in Vauxhall Apache metallic, comes complete with doors, bonnet, boot and front wings (N/S wing has hammer dints in where I modified it to fit slicks lol ).

The shell has been stitch welded throughout and seam welded in the engine bay. The chassis leg has been modified for the big block alternator clearance.

Comes with Safety Devices 6-point cage (inc door bars and rear diagonal), GSi dash, strengthened bottom arms with poly race bushes, GSi tiebars again polyrace bushes. All glass is there too. Anyone who has used this site for 2 years will remember the monster WIP threads in 2005 when it was built from a bare shell in a couple of weekends.

The shell has the V5 logbook with only one former keeper and MOT which runs out in June 2007.

The price reflects the condition and whats included, it is ideal for someone to build a track/competition car very cheap.

rally car? what super 1600 spec or raod rally etc

it aint just as easy as that, there are certain rules an regs lol, first point of call would be to join your local car club (wolverhampton and south staffs does most round by us) and then you'll need an MSA logbook etc etc

I apologise if your already aware, its just i hear this day in day (i used to build to test drive pug rallys cars for a living) and poeple arnt aware of what involved tbh

Free bump too ;)
