I used the phrase "Hen's teeth" in my first post about finding early Escorts and Cortinas which are required to build a Ron Champion Locost. I thought Sierras would be easy to find and as cheap as chips.
Sadly not true, after several weeks of stalking eBay, looking at Freeads, Gumtree and anything else I could look at I finally managed to lay my hands on one for about £300. It's a 90,000 miler with a 1.8 CVH engine in it. I'd originally planned to go for a Zetec engine and ditch the CVH but I was so impressed driving the Sierra that I've decided I'm going to try and stick with the CVH and make this a really low cost build.
