mk1 is the cream of the crop imo, love the looks, love the handling and love the increasingly retro lean of them
saying that i'm selling one of mine, lol
nah aimed at me i think mate lol
aerial hole is still there, i decided i wanted to keep just that, needs something to break it up, but the roof rails had to go lol
14-05-2009 Painted!
popped up to see the car, it had literally just come out the oven and to say i'm happy would be a little bit of an understatement
check out the party piece of the show as well.......no more showers for me in this bad boy now! :P
nice escort aswell at the shop today...
2 lads, both called matt off this site have owned it between then since around then? first guy had first batch of bodywork done on it in birmingham so not miles from there. other matt who owned it before me lived in essex so likely not to be him
its not a wolfsberg lol, last owner just bought the doorpins, FAIL lol but rattier the better so they are staying
i have a -60mm suspension kit for it, but i'm keeping it on current drop otherwise it wont be practical, speedbumps all over work on way in
and it has been abandoned and will...
best bet is the g40, same engine with a supercharger for 120bhp
can cam this lump aswell to over 100bhp with literally just a cam timed in properly. standard management can cope with it and will adapt, WIN
believe people have put all sorts in them tho for some serious either cash or home...
i'm back in warrington fella this weekend visiting the folks so i'm not gonna be able make it
carsington is like 5 miles from cromford mate on the ashbourne road, so right on my doorstep n all
just picked her up, ratty runabout for the win! :unibrow:
patched up the rust tonight, few electrical niggles to sort and i think the head gasket it less than perfect but for a coupla ton can't argue. new suspension, brakes and tyres all round and mot till november, good times!

daz, your a crazy crazy man, but i love you...
i stripped the car, took all the panels off and attempted to prep the interior for paint, stripped the tar out etc etc so i've done some bits n bobs, probably saved a couple of days labour on it
ferrari is in for full paint, so dust aint really a problem at this stage lol
car is staying same colour and yes i had just had it detailed, hence why its here, i was pissed off with how shite the paint was still lol
tyres are toyo proxes r888's
09-05-2009 Bodyshop Progress
went down on saturday to strip some more bits and key up the interior ready for paint. all the panels are ready and most of the shell prep is done, just waiting on a part from france and some under chassis welding and its in for the paint back end of this week...
addz mate, its in sutton somewhere, right near chris' house, who did the detailing and dan dan the turbo mans garage,guy with naples mk 1 turbo at the ripley rr day sure you can seek it out ;-)
tom, no chance, i like the slightly retro leanings, its a 1994 car after all lol
