This \u0160koda 130 Estelle rolled out of the factory with a 1.3 L inline-four and five-speed manual transmission in a rear-engine, rear-wheel-drive layout. However this particular version was completely transformed by the owner Steven Gibson<\/a>. Instead of trying to replace the \u0160koda’s powertrain one piece at a time, he decided to install the \u0160koda body over a stripped 2001 Audi TT Quattro chassis. Now the \u0160koda sports a front engine layout with a turbocharged 1.8 L 20v inline-four, Haldex 4WD drivetrain, and modern suspension. You can view more photos of the project at MA PhotoworX’s FB album<\/a>.<\/p>\n
