Why was the running gear taken off it in the first place?

corktina

for a rally car...had a hot engine in it....

ikb

Has the look of a rally car alright, with the bonnet clips n all, Fcuk me paint job, and... Go Fassster RED Stripe:D
Are you going to follow on in the Rally theme?... (You mentioned spots etc)... If so you could fit buckets, and a wickle, tiny steering wheel.

corktina

its a 1600E...a 1600E has spotlights(see brackets). This wasn't a rally car...the running gear went into a rally car (do try to keep up) the bonnet pins are there because the catch was broken.
