Name That Car...
Darn you beat me! I just found based on the wheels being the same as a Ford Escort I search a bunch of Fords from 70s and found it. Sounds like it would have been a cool car.
Good job Tony!

"A rarely known Ford was created in 1970 for the competition director, Stuart Turner and rally driver Roger Clark. GT70 was Ford's answer to the competative Lancia Stratos. Much of the mechanicals were borrowed from previous Ford models with hopes of keeping production costs low. Only 6 chassis were made. During production, WRC rules changed and made the GT70 redundant."

Yeah, sorry. Got massively sick last night and just now woke up. It was intended to be a full (limited) production car like the Stratos and Alpine, but only 3 were built and raced a few times before the project was scrapped. When the rules changed Ford turned to the Escort.
Yup! figured it'd be easy- but it's so crazy Merc came out with these... only 5-6 roadsters made, and 19-20 or so coupes. They sell currently for $1.8-2.5 million at auctions... yikes!
But yes, you're back in.
- Hope you're feeling better!
