    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.

      Not built by Ford so what exactly are they? It's taken me 24 years to get all original panels for my MK3 Cortina build to ensure originality and like for like replacement. These are not Ford Escorts, they look like they are but they are no different to a fibreglass copy of a Ferrari with a VW Beetle engine. They look good of course, no dispute there.

I remember them as a cheap and cheerful product slapped together with no regard to durability much like all their competitors of that era. Personally I’d rather MST constructed them with a carbon Fibre body shell that would go some way to justify the price.

      That doesn't really make any sense- unless every car that's assembled in a factory is somehow a 'kit car'. The original definition was: cars supplied as a kit that you build at home, which this clearly isn't- they are built to order in a small factory...

      @@mikeatcora ...and as they say 'cars are original only once.' When I was down at the gritblasters with my 70's Alfa (*😳), an early 'scorty was just out the blasting container. Very much a tea-bag with thousands of perforations in astonishing places. There was barely any Ford left. By the time that is made roadworthy, should it also be called something else?
      Without NOS parts, what options are we left with to keep old cars running but pattern parts? Admittedly a different question but some overlap with this debate.
      There is a modern iteration of the Alfa 105 made by Totem. Full carbon fibre monocoque and 10% bigger. I am too much of a Luddite to know how to link but worth a look- seems to be dubbed a 'Restomod' but it is an entirely new vehicle.

    Are they rust protected. And what is the quality of the steel. Because if there made abroad how would you know. But they are lovely cars. I think if I had one it would have to look like a
    Standard Twin cam. Without the big arches. Like the one Retropower did for Gordon murry. Also I would love an original RS 1600.

      @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
