Okay, a few months ago, I started a post about the ugliest rims on a CSVT ever. To the owner/former owner of that car I offer my sincerest apologies for this person has you beaten hands down. Other than some asthetics, this looks like a very nice CSVT, although it needs some TLC. Please my fellow CEG'ers pray for this Tour' and it's owner.....

bored out to 2.6, but no mention of more robust pistons which would be prudent given the rather unortodox method of compresssion increase. They must be thos unotainium ones from that bike shop guy in pennsylvania...I may be mistaken, there are NO COSWORTH cams available for this motor, without very extensive additional unlisted mods. Finally, who chipped it? Some logging truck on the highway in Oregon toss a stone into the hood...

It's not even an SVT, it's an SE with the SVT bumpers.

By far the ugliest wheels I have ever seen. Are they hubcaps?

Looks like hubcaps to me. All that car needs is those "spinner" hubcaps

Walmart/KMart/whatevermart comes to mind (not knocking the stores, just the mental picture of this TOOL shopping for hubcaps for his car)

The wheels remind me of what you see WRC cars use for those ultra skinny snow tires they run. Other than that, the car looks pretty clean to me. I'd debadge it myself, but at least it doesn't have a 3 foot wing and crap on it.

(*sigh*)
I'd debadge it, but I might leave the Cosworth sail panels, kinda keep people guessing.
The wheel covers have got to go... They make it look like a Euro-Spiderman reject car.
Must be that jumbly-wumbly thing happening again.
