Think the fibreglass body comment adds a little weight to it being the kit car. If it is then the engine and running gear was from Cortina's.

In fact this was named as a Sierra long before Ford named the Ford Sierra that followed the Mk IV Cortina. There were many discussions re names and Trademarks at the time, but Ford had more ££££ than Dutton, so Ford were able to use the Sierra name. Yes only 2 wheel drive, but it paved the way to show that some people wanted this type of vehicle. :thumb2
