looks like a bargain if you can get it for around that price. its already on the road so you will just have to tidy it up.
adam
bonnet looks like its been on fire to me...
And it's a Robin Hood Exmo too, which means it'll have bits of blue polyprop. rope with washers holding the rear springs in - and they use
the whole Sierra rear subframe complete with soggy bushes.
I'd rather walk tbh. At least save the money up and get something else anyway.
Looks like the S7 to me.
It's what i'm building (same engine). If push came to shove you could remove the V6 and put in a Pinto or other easily availble 4 pot.
Rear axle is easy to fix - do away with the standard Sierra shocks/ springs and install coilovers. Not difficult at all.
Basically this has a bit of work to do but it's cheap motoring for a fun car. no SVA hassles either.
