it doesn't matter if it's a Morris Marina or a Toyota Celica - it's what you do with it that counts

Well, it's better than yet another Cossie rep I reckon...
Still not totally convinced I like it, but you're right the door-less thing is quite a cool touch! Is that an intercooler I spy... meaning Cossie lump? The link don't work so I can't check the spec! ;D

That looks quite good actually, I do think the saloon version would have looked better as a covertible, might look kinda like the mk2 cav convertible then I expect.
You NEED those rear lights on your project reanimation!!!!! Wonder what model they are off?

I'm getting daft ideas about a kind of T topped Sapph with welded up and chopped down doors now, you may be onto something. new where would i find a suitable donor vehicle... ;D

I wish I had of been quicker with my camera at RTTS this year, there was a guy with a kawasaki green sierra saff cosworth with the roof chopped off looked the dog plums done by a bodyshop or sommit. It was wheel spinning away down a side road followed by a load of kids with water bombs, before i could get a pic! Never saw it again, so if anyone got a pic of it PLEASE POST IT UP ;D

Not 100% sure it's my taste but it looks like a great concept, and well executed. It could so easily have been another pretend RS500! I'm getting daft ideas about a kind of T topped Sapph with welded up and chopped down doors now, you may be onto something. new where would i find a suitable donor vehicle... ;D Where indeed... ;D Been toying with the idea of 2-door'ing a Sapphire lately, don't know how to make the "rear door" area look tidy though. When I can weld...... ;D
