I purchased this last year with the intention of building a 300bhp Duratec engined rally car, but a year later I've done nothing with it and I can't see that changing for the foreseeable future.
I regretted selling my Chevette HS some years ago and I know I will regret this too, but with other priorities which take up all of my time I would simply rather have something that's finished in the garage at the moment that I can use very occasionally.
About the car:
Call me for any additional details and photos 0781 071 0686
Car is located in Newport, South Wales and will need to be trailered away.
Duratec engine components will be available separately including:
Brand new and unused 2.3 Duratec block (sourced from Cosworth).
Cosworth Duratec barrell throttle bodies (the best you can buy).
Standard Duratec head (needs attention).
Duratec RWD sump (brand new).

About the car:
- Is registered as a 1980 'V' so indistinguishable from a real HSR. From memory it is a 1.3e on the logbook.
- Chevette's rust but this car was rust proofed from new and the shell is as good as you'll find anywhere and perfect as a base for rally preparation (that's why I got it).
- I don't know when the HSR panels were put on, but looks to have been done quite well.
- The car was treated to a full paint job last year (including engine bay) by the previous owner, and the finish is as it came out of the gun (not yet flattened/polished etc.). A reasonable job, but not concourse!
- The car was running a 2.3 s/c slant 4 and getrag box (I do not have these).
- Has been fitted with rear turrets which looks a tidy job.
- The car is fitted with bilstein's all round, probably with tarmac springs.
- Has a 4 linked rear axle (diff ratio unknown).
- Comes with brand new Volvo 4 pot front calipers (not fitted).
- There is no front seats, harnesses or roll cage with the car.
