Ford Focus as a donor

[jimmy_k]

Hello,

Completely new to this - just bought the book and had a question.... I know the ford focus is FWD but could one be used as a donor car like the MEV sonic 7 and source a the prop shaft and diff etc from elsewhere.

My mate has a ford focus that has just failed its MOT on emissions and I was wondering whether this was a viable way forward using the chassis in BYOSC.

Or am I in cloud cuckoo land and need to get past page 50 of the book?

It's a long term project of donor car first then build.

Thanks
