Since dabbling in pretty much everything to do with a Focus, thought this would be the logical choice. Fancied going the RWD Focus RS using a suitable gearbox on the original FRS lump, but then thanks to Carlo and Andrew Gallacher, they informed me that this one was back up for sale. Searched for a decent Escort Cosworth, but I'm guessing my timing is wrong for one at the moment
But as for the FoCos, it was bought well over a year ago from Andrew and went to a nice chap called Mark (I believe his username here is Macca???) in Belfast, but was sadly unused for all that time. Fetched her yesterday on a horrible ferry ride from Anglesey to Dublin which honestly, I could have swam the crossing quicker
So keep an eye on this thread, a few updates coming as and when I get the time. Just wanna thank Blacky, Wenny and John Cole (johnyjn) for helping me up to this point...and most likely for the forseable future
Also a big thanks to Mark for answering all my repetative questions for the last 2 weeks
First job was to sort the brake servo. Sat for such a long time in all weathers, appeared to be shafted. But after a slight tap it came back into life. Works well now and I have brakes!
Next step will be MOT, sort the breather and then sort the small cosmetic issues on the bodywork.
