Similar price to Roberto's cast stratos uprights. Guess its the going rate.
It's funny? You could build a new 037, right down to the last little detail. It's possible.
It's a much longer shot, but you could even build a group 4 Stratos.
However, it's seen as if, you're 'crossing a line', by entering such a car in a Historic event. Even if you've managed to get hold of car on paper only (that is, the identity of a homologation run chassis number).
And yet, very few Twin Cam, RS1600 or RS1800 entered in UK historic rally events actually carry the ID of the homologation run cars that they are supposed to be based on. 'Far more likely that a Chevette, or Ascona would start life as one of the 400 off run.
Then you think, well, "is it ok to build a 131 Abarth replica? The difference here being that the bodyshell is modified almost to group 4 as standard, whereas the Escort group 4 modifications are all fabricated and added to the standard shell after factory production.
Very nice book on the 037 - expensive though! As the seller says, pages do stick together so if you get one, put it in the fridge for an hour or two in a plastic bag and that'll do the job!
