Did malcom Wilson not originally build the shell. Think it was a rally cross car then.

I built one in 1994 well I nearly finished it, the shell was finished. It was lighter than a mark2 and It was a Rally Fab kit, I knew Lol well who designed it and he helped me with fabrication and fitted a weld in cage for me. I sold it with all the fabrication done to Gareth LLoyd to fund the purchase of a house. It was very different to a mark2 in set-up front crossmember moved forwards, engine rearwards also the top mounts were turned through about 60 degrees so that the engine bay was wider. Mine also had link boxes which were wider than normal to take Serria TCA bushes, so I would not have to replace the mark2 ones every 2 events. The link boxes were also further apart from the centre line of the car than a mark2, which was surposed to give better stability.
I though Pat Jeffs was a genisiss and it was Richie Pearl her navs husband that had a G3 which he sold to Des Wyn, it had a BDA ZF and fully floater but i'm not totally sure.

wow a blast from the past, i think your on about lol kinair ??

the thing with rally fab rally design and a gartrac is some people all call them the same thing especially when talking about £££'s.
now i have seen mk3 rwd's called a gartrac when they were not but i knew what gartrac innerwings looked like so thats what i instantly could tell by,also they don't look grand without the alloy arches and nice set of 16" 8 inch wide revolution rfx's.

heres the info direct from gartrac.... http://www.gartrac.com/company/gartracG6.htm

opening up an old thread but has anyone any pictures of a genessis engine bay or gartrac. Is there any way of telling a proper genessis shell to the so called ones about.

The Solarquest car could of been Steve Winter's car but I'm sure that was on a WWC251L plate which is on my friends MK1 Markku Alen Replica now.

I remember the Pete Wells Proworth Escort, mint machine that was. I dont have pics but there will be some on my other thread on British Rally on Rally pics from the past (somewhere in the 540 pages of it lol)

You say you reshelled a Gartrac to a Genesis shell? was the Gartrac a knacker like?

Steve Winter bought his car off Pat Doran but it was never a solarquest car , that started after he got the 3dr Cossie.
