    And they're well traveled at this point, too. Just don't let Tanak near them!

    You are talking non sense as always.Do they replace chassis?No they don't.And I can tell you that most cars would be pretty banged up if they are used on rally stages for well over a decade.

    Those are build for recce and more like Group N cars. I can't imagine Malcom will replace them as long as they keep on running. He probably forced Ford to pay them.
