      Me to, a 1972 in race spec, drove it into a concrete buss stop, I was only just 18.
      Bought the car in 1980 for 2.500 Gulden, around 1.000 dollar....unimaginable these days.

    Although a mate who builds Escort rally cars says the Mk1 stands up better to a roll. More material in the pillars, especially the C pillar, and due to the curves pressed into the panels, they're stronger.

      @russcooke5671 did you see the two escort builds on retro power? When Nat spoke about these MST shells, the quality is not good, the alignment is all off, and even buying just the panels and nothing lined up with an original shell. That’s why they ended up repairing and using the original steel.
      Made in uk??? I think if not made outside uk, then the panels are pressed in another far distant country where all poor quality parts are made nowadays and then probably assembled and built in uk.
      If I’m wrong MST then stand by your product and make a video showing the shell making process in the uk please. Thanks a lot.
      They do still look great but I prefer my original RS1600
