Quick google search for Sierra Thundersaloon Gulf Colours,  Reading the name of the builder (on the front splitter) as Kevin Williams gave this lead,   |

It's not either of the usual thundersaloon arch kits. One has 2 vents in the front of the rear arch, like the Fibresports/MC Rallying style kit:  The other is the one that was used to turn the ex-BTCC Labatts RS500 into the Arquati/Securicor thundersaloon, with a single vent at the bottom of the rear arch:  There is a mention of Kevin Williams' car in this thread on PassionFord: passionford.com/forum/general-car-related-discussion/131357-widebody-3-door.htmlThe car caught fire during the Classic Thunder round at Snetterton in 2004:  It was then rebuilt as a thundersaloon with the assistance of Mark Van Driel ( www.vandrielengineering.co.uk/ ). The front arches are of the type usually found in thundersaloon kits, but the rear arches were handmade - it looks like they extended the standard panels outwards, with the rear light positions moved outwards to match.  |

Best looking sierra i've ever seen, much better looking than most thundersaloons. The front arches are of the type usually found in thundersaloon kits, but the rear arches were handmade - it looks like they extended the standard panels outwards I was also going to say this. Are you sure the front arches aren't home made too? The look alot less rounded and more sierra like than the usual stuff? |
