    I actually like the way they look. But I can't speak for their performance as I know nothing about them.

    lol, I'm sure you could understand why I had to post them after seeing this set of pics.

    Removal of the factory moldings (I've removed the "flares" because my wheels were scrubbing, if the rest is that easy, it's SIMPLE) and finding Sierra Cosworth flares/sideskirts and screwing them on. It's a pretty simple car to work on from my experience so far.

    I'm on board for seeing this car make big numbers. If you want to test a .58 T3T4 on it to see the power difference, let me know. But I want a turn to drive

    I think the cladding is riveted on, but removal is still not that bad. The cosworth kit can be found and mounted. If you want affordable, it'll be fiberglass replica peices. If not, then the true cossie stuff is pricey.

    Here's my favorite Sierra pic:


    Will work for food, car parts, or three stripe apparel. And not necessarily in that oder.

    Thanks for the info! I was offered a set of replica cladding with bigger flares for the bigger wheels I want to run. I need to see how much the guy was thinking.

    Default cosworth

    Try turboford.org

    also rapido.com might have the cosworth kit.

    They are more xr4ti stuff than turbo coupe and svo.

    The cosworth ran a totally different motor in them than what we had over hear.

    That was one car I really wish them imported from England.

    My cousin had one and it was a beast.

    I'm thinking more like wheels, turbo that most people would say is "too much", supporting mods, and some restoration (mainly interior).
