How to identify a GT box?

I have got several mk2 escort boxes in my garage and I just want to check out what I have in my posession. Is there a simple visual check I can do to identify if I have a GT box?

Cheers

The gt box in most cases the rear tail housing top bar and lower part is joined together.

Hi Well you where due some luck at some point with this build .

Re snett GAZZAP. Well as you left i think you took the decent weather with you as it then rained quite hard for a few minutes and then just drizzeled for the rest of the affternoon till 4pm when it was end of play. Gregg did Ok and was happilly getting used to the car again so he is looking foward to next season. Think Dave enjoyed himself so it should be a good article for the locosts and kits when it comes out.

cheers Matt

Procomp is this secret information? Could you make it available to the Locost community?

What are you talking about when you say a GT box anyway - different ratios?

The gt box was fitted to the 1300gt and 1600gt version of the escort. They have better ratios
