Phoenix Body parts

Hi all

How available are Phoenix body parts? Coming from and Elise and VX220 particularly I know of how hard they can be to source.

Kind regards

Matt

but raw is producing the phoenix only in its later form with this kind of rear:




what is when you need body parts for such a car:





and are the raw bonnet and the sills interchangeable on both cars?

The 2nd picture is a MkIV Clubman and not really a Phoenix. The sills and bonnet from the later car should fit.

I would call the red one a MkIV Clubman with a non-air dam bonnet. You can see that it is not the same as the later Phoenix but had hints of the Fury (like the back does).

but the maroon-one (1991 reg date) already have the rocker-arm suspension at front, 100% based on escort, and the more spacoius inside...compared to the "real" MK4 clubman.

Hi the whole set is available.
I've already ordered one to retrofit a striker to a phoenix.
Thick fiberglass , some crazing in the moulds requires an after production paint to the panels/bonnet/clam.
Great guy with a stragth forward business relation
