Title: Stuart Highlander !! 4X4 Scorpio Estate
Post by Dave2302 on Apr 1^st, 2010, 12:09pm

Highlander,

Hows the project coming on....Done any more yet?

I gave up trying to find a Focus / Coscort shell, so have bought a 1.7 Puma with busted cambelt instead. £400 !!

Widearch bodykit on order, then gonna put the 24V in it with 4X4 running gear and also looking at fitting single Turbo and Intercooler with Megasquirt management.

Workshop now all finished with 2 post lift installed, god that was a nightmare, had to dig up floor and re do concrete on one side as post anchor bolts wouldn't hold...it just went on and on lol.

Will be on yr case soon, want a couple of spare BOB ex manifolds maybe a few other bits and you can have wots left of the Scorpio Estate if ya want, once I've pulled out the engine and box , could leave main loom PATS and ECU in it if you have spares to supply ??

Hope life's treatin ya good

Regards Dave

Did you not put it back on the road then?

Got plenty 24v spares ;)

Getting there slowly light nights might encourage a bit more action on it :)
still on the lookout for a pair of DOHC 4x4 diffs or a whole car though.

2 interesting projects there, seen a few 4x4 yb puma's not seen a 24ver though, most are using sierra front and rear sub frames ... keep us updated dave :D

Stuart what parts do you need for the 4x4 mate?

Got everything I think Dave, just would rather have the 3.9 diffs instead of the 3.6's

Bloody shame that, I threw two 2.0 4by diffs in the skip just before I moved up here.

Decided not to put the Scorp back on the road, sorted the chain rattle but where it has stood it needs discs master cylinder etc and I bought a really nice North Face Explorer last yr which we now using for a second car, so thought I would use my 24V engine in the rally car !!

Matt, yeah will be a good project, I've been following the YB ones but haven't seen another 24V one.

Will be in touch once the Scorp is stripped of engine ad box.

Cheers for now Dave
