IMO and I have said this to Dean, it needs finishing off, not many people buy none runners, that's the simple fact of it.

Tbh I think he's crazy selling after what he's done, I thought I was the barmy one

i would buy the sensors and rear brakes and finish it off for the sale. stunning car and would be far more appealing finished. only 500ish needed spending on bits then you might get your asking price. not a dig at all, its a cracking car.

It's not getting the bits together it's just spending the time to finish it off suppose it probably needs bout another day spending on it I'll see what happens not in a real rush to sell it anyway might just keep it and finish off later in the year

I spoke to you when the car went for sale i spoke to my mate and he was really interested but really needed a complete car to test for the money - i know it's a belting car and wouldn't bother me doing the few little jobs but it's not me buying, needs completing

always feels suspect when a car advertised as this good isnt finished as its top end money you are advertising it for.
if you had offer without wheels for 14k,sell the wheels and put 500 quid into the car to make 14k.... i just dont get it... you wont get 14k for it in bits so wy not get somebody else to finish it then sell it...... if you dont have the time to finish it.?

Theres nothing suspect about the car obviously you don't know the car but many on here do.
As for price I think it's fair considering the money I've spent on it and considering mileage condition etc if it don't sell it will just sit in the garage until I have time to finish it

If there was somthing suspect about the car I would of accepted one of the offers I've had to get rid of the car but this is not the case there's nothing at all wrong with it as for price it clearly shows you haven't got a clue and are talking out off your ar*e so thanks for the stupid comment on my sale thread

There is nothing suspect with this car, you'll struggle to find better believe me, of course there are a few gems out there but IMO this car is stunning, but I will reiterate as Dean knows I think ( personally) it needs finishing off.

Dean has been very honest mentioning the scratch and the dents, he is a genuine decent guy to deal with, my sale was hassle free.

Should be ok,I leave for work before the gritter has been out so it will last a while.
I do need some snow tyres though for those really bad days.

Good to know,I have not started a rebuild/project thread as I have not had time but I have pulled the car apart and started a amassing a huge pile of parts for the rebuild.
Plans are.
Paint the underside again.
Re-powder coat all the suspension parts satin black.
Replace every bolt/nut/washer with nos genuine ford.
Reyland 300mm rear discs.
Dropped off a pile of parts at the platers to get zinc plated.
I have new fuel pipes,gators,wing repeaters, plus a ton of other parts coming from ford.
Re bolstered the drivers seat.
New compomotive 18" th wheels with Yokohama parada tyres.
Had the front caliper brackets machined as they were fouling the disc.
Booked in for the drivers side to be painted and the holes for the strut brace to be welded up and painted.
New track control arms,refit the front arb,poly bush the rear beam and front suspension.
Bought konis and waiting on Ahmed abayjoo springs.
Fitted an rs center to the steering wheel.
Sent the rear calipers to be plated silver and be rebuilt.
New under bonnet sticker kit.
So far I'm at the parts collecting stage and the car is up on axle stands with bits off to be finished the way I want them.
I'm taking pics but not uploaded them.
I will when I get a few hours to sit down and start a thread.

Because I'm not happy with it and there's no point finishing everything else all around it nice and not doing this.

And me paying 15k wasn't madness,that was the price and the car is worth it but for it to be up to my standard and be 100% happy I knew what needed done and spent before I even viewed the car.
