This is the only picture I can find at the moment. I got this body shell years ago from a friend Ed who got it from the original owner who was a merchant marine and brought it home from England, it's LHD so the story goes that he ordered it that way to bring to the states. He was a neighbor of my friend and when Ed asked if he would sell it he responded with " I'm going to keep it until I die". But that prompted him to get it running again so he pulled the engine and trans and sent them out to be rebuilt and then promptly died. Ed bought it from the Estate sale minus the drive train because no one knew where they were. Ed sat on it for a few years and I bought it from him for IIRC $400.00. This was about 1982-1983 and I started to install a 2.6L V-6 out of a Capri into it then Kids happened and it has never gotten back to the top of the to do list. Right now it's stored in my basement sitting on top of a Miata skate as an option for suspension, and I'm thinking I want to keep the engine in the ford family so now thinking of a 2.3L Ecoboost and 6 spd out of the newer Mustangs to power her. The Dallara and this are now my top 2 car projects I want to finish before I'm to old to do any more. So hopefully I will have it driving before I've owned it 40 years LOL.
