Did it start life as a 4 door - the space between the rear of the door and wheel is too long. Door also looks short for a two door car. Edit: Drivers window is square like a 4dr car - is not the 2dr glass more rectangular?

I agree with you, also as an airflow model shouldn't it also have vents on the rear pillars? Rear side window too long too.
Where did this come from? Photoshop or real?

Yes this is the real deal. No photoshop here. The car started its life as a four door.The owner claims that he made it into a LOTUS replica . So why not use a two door instead???? I just don't get it...... :evil:

believe it or not but alot of people actually do this. especially to mk1 and mk2 escorts. well used to anyway, due to the big difference in 2 and 4door prices. but now the 4 doors are picking up their value, fortunately you dont see nay, or at least many people buggering up their cars anymore! it just never looks right.
