Unfortunatly it is, theres alot more damage where the external roll bar has pushed the roof in and also twisted the back panels. They are seeing what they can do with it but it'll never be the same.

The car now bearing the reg H1 FEV started it's ralling career in 1993 in the 25 year anniversary re-run of the 1968 London to Sydney rally, build by Webster and Lancaster, entered by FMC with Gavin Green (Car Magazine) as driver. It was then prepared by Historic Motor Sport for the 25 year anniversary re run of the 1970 London to Mexico rally with Hannu driving again and he of course won it, it was for this event that it got it's current reg which is a referance to the original 1970 winning car (FEV 1H). Since then it has earned it's keep at Ford one way and another as a PR tool, and a very good job it does.
It's repairs are now completed and it will be very busy again.
