I cant take any credit for this as the first time I had heard of this car was this Pistonheads article but here is an awesome home built 306 rally car with a V6 Cosworth engine  http://www.pistonheads.com/news/default.asp?storyId=24879 |

So is that beast 4wd then? Engine looks like its in the back, so was just thinking that engine would have to be pointing the other way than they normally are, and thus won't all the shafts be spinning the otherway around?Probably a simple answer to a stupid question, but was just wondering how they would do it? ________________________________________ 1992 Onyx Black 205 GTI-62005 Honda S2000 (Sold) 2002 Audi S3 (Sold) 2005 Clio 182 Trophy (sold) |

just what I was thinking too Phill, after all its only non compatible with stage rally in 2012, it would fit quite a few other cats.________________________________________ need a part number? get on here - http://public.servicebox.peugeot.comBring on the Trumpets. |

You can still get those ice racing shells, thought about building the next safari buggy under one at one point.________________________________________ - Bespoke rollcages/additions/adjustments.

Think it'll either be a Clio 197 shell or a 205 now tbh, fit the engine/box/frame combo a bit better.________________________________________ - Bespoke rollcages/additions/adjustments.

he didnt use the shell, just the bodykit I thought? unless the ice racers are more 306 shell than I'd imagined?there's still a fair amount of 306 in there, half the bulkhead, rear section of the inner wings, windcreen frame and front of the roof, and the door apertures. ________________________________________ need a part number? get on here - http://public.servicebox.peugeot.comBring on the Trumpets. |
