This is my latest project, a 1989 Skoda Estelle 120L5 (Hell5). I originally owned this car in 2003, then sold it to a mate of mine, who gave it a thorough check over etc before we took it over the the Czech Republic in 2004. We drove it all the way there and back, covering 1600 miles in just over a week, 3 up plus luggage. My mate then sold it a few months later to another mate who owned it for about 18 months before he sold it back, then it got sold on again, before coming back to me. When I originally owned it, it was totally standard, but now it has a 136 (1300cc) engine out of an Endurance rally car. This is fully lightened and balanced, and as far as I know, has some sort of cam in it as well, lets say it goes very well. Here's a few pics. As you can see from the pics, it has a solid shell, but is in desperate need of a respray. My plans are to respray in white and have as a rally replica to advertise my rally photography. Hopefully it will soon look like this Taken at The Rally Show @ Chatsworth 29-30 Sept 2007

Hoping to have the roll cage painted and fitted this week, then the work starts on rubbing down ready for repainting in white, then having the rally graphics fitted

I'm always tempted with Q cars to keep them as standard looking as possible, even if they have got something tasty in the back.
Then again, If you've got some go, you might as well show
