New mk2 escort shells

[DAI COSSY]

Anyone know much of them
I've been waiting my whole life for this to happen and promised myself when the time comes that new shells being made, I'm going for it and I made my deposit today can't wait til April now then the build will comense have yb running gear waiting for it
The guy who has made this happen is going to do well as long as there decent enough the same guys early pannels that were being made weren't great but his pannels these days are the best I'm told, so hopefully these shells are going to be good enough for what I want no rust at all on a mk2 escort now that's what I call a dream lol........

Who's doing the new shells mate?

[DAI COSSY]

On eBay there a vehicle dismantles in Northern Ireland

[simbo]

It's Higgins car dismantlers that's getting them done. 7k for a full shell including panels. I thought they were already made though. There been photos of them posted up on Facebook already.
Been a bit of a debate on how they will actually be registered though. Do they come with ID's and receipts etc?

[Cossie col]

Supprised the mk1 wasn't done 1st got to be the way to go though

[Davecos 4x4]

A big thread on them on Turbosport.

[Joe-Tait]

They look very good.

The people making them in China must be confused why we like these old things though haha

There's only 50 shells being made to start off from what I've heard . I did consider buying one instead of rebuilding my Mexico but I've heard you can't get a valuation on the car through the rsoc if it's reshelled

surely to get a new reg it'll have to go through VOSA approval etc, so it's kit car on a q plate otherwise?

Then theres the obvious using the ID from another older car but then its still rehelled and not as valuable?

[Ben Purnell]

The MK1 would have been a better choice imo, but the MK2 is still good looking. Look forward to seeing your build Dai
