Why put all that time and money into a car that costs less than a Cossie head gasket set?

However, there is something strangely appealing about it!

Some people really dont get the sleeper thing do they

That looks great, and the car itself actually looks pretty nice, loving the big steelies on it.

Top work

Ford made a similar car in conjunction with someone else who I cant remember (Tickford?). Looked like a standard escort but was running a turbo motor and it was 4x4 too. Cant remember the exact details of engine etc.

Yeah, for the price of doing all that he could have had a brand new Punto and some new shoes....

Barmy and the purest example of the nreed I have seen, no clues, could do with the lad posting some more info.
