Perfect Donor with a twist

Yet another worthless old Ginetta G26. Perfect donor material though, as it has Cortina hubs, axle, gearbox, engine etc...
I know this one as well, because I actually owned this one around 1999. In the end I couldn't get rid of it and ended up giving it away - what was I thinking...

Zil's old Ginetta on ebay.

Oh - and here's a pic of it when I had it. (Wish I still had those wheels ) Rescued attachment G26.JPG

I rather like that. I'm suprised they are worth so little.

So pull the corting engine, and shove in a 2 litre Zetec with throttle bodies, and megasquirt

but if you did the nasty deed and strip what looks like a perfectly good car for its running gear, what would you do with the shell, oh and the v5

The V5 does say Ginetta - definitely.
If it had said 'Ford Special' as some of them did - now that would be a different matter...
