Nah - my eyes are seeing a Sierra aswell?

 

[Miggs]

+1 for Sierra

 

[monzer]

It's MOT'd as a Sierra. Or it was, expired test now.

 

[Jev88]

Not sure why anyone would think it is an Escort and not the Sierra? Bloomin awful idea either way

[Two on Tour]

They did the same conversion for the Saab's as well.

Now *that* is fugly. And totally impractical.

Why, just why? I sort of get them on the back of pickups, though I wouldn't have one.

Wasn’t there something by a firm called Starcross or StarCraft ( I think), but it also came with an extra set of wheels in tandem with cars rear wheels. Circa 1960/70. Granddad told me

 

[Fdhadi]

Definitely a Jelly Mold.

There was/is also Le clipcar, but with a slightly different sort of 'articulated' set up with the fifh wheel on a roof rack...

I'd love to see it going round corners!!

 

[DDJC]

10/10 for ingenuity.
0/10 for looks, practicality, road stability, front/rear weight distribution, colour coordination, looks, rear shock wear, parking on zebra crossing zigzags and looks.

Did I mention looks? Fugliest bolt-on since this one.

Yes indeed.. Cortina chopped in two..
Rear scrapped as well as front of cab. Cab unit bolted to a custom ladder chassis and Starcraft body mounted on top and Starcraft panels fitted to front. All cortina running gear used. Trailer indespension units for extra wheels.
solaris bit out with date.... early 80s.

 

[solaris]

Only a decade out, not too bad. At the time thought they were quite interesting, now that is bad

 

[Otter Spotter]

OK, I stand corrected, the front wings give it away it’s a Sierra

 

[Northernraider]

That Sierra is actually a 5 door Escort !

No it's definitely a Sierra

 

[Northernraider]
