JeeExEll Posted August 8, 2020 Share Posted August 8, 2020 . Pre-facelift 3 litre with facelift front and bonnet. Looks like maybe Mk1 Escort indicators. The quarter bumpers look a little bit odd mounted so low. Can't tell what the wheels are, Wolfrace slot mags would have been perfect.

JeeExEll Posted August 8, 2020 Share Posted August 8, 2020 DVLA says 'Special Ford'. 2994cc, so an Essex V6. Was it a one-off or some sort of fantastic build-your-own kit which you could live in? No idea. Rally bucket front seats too. I'd love to go on holiday in one. LightBulbFun, hennabm, adw1977 and 2 others 4 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In the early 90s I worked with a guy in his 50s who was totally bald on top but still had some hair lower down at the back. He used to comb it all the way forward in two halves so he had a fringe and a sort of centre parting. He was a really sound bloke to work with but very set in his ways and no-one ever mentioned it, but when he was talking to clients you could see their eyes drifting upwards to his forehead.
