That's a dream car You have there. Thumbs up for attention to detail. It's good to know that You don't want to ruin the beauty of this Sapphire 2WD with clear indicators, quad Morettes, smoked rear lamps, Escos rims etc. There are so many of them around "upgraded" this way. I like the original & mint appearance of Your moonstone beauty very much. That's the way I would like to see my own Sapphire Cosworth some day (I'm driving Sierra DOHC now).

That is stunning mate, its nice to see someone putting it back to how it was when it left the factory, too many have been bastardised!!!
Although I am going to own a bastardised one by the end of this year!!!! Its really nice to see an original one. I'd love one like that, but I need a tidyish but not perfect one due to the mileage that I do! Keep up the good work mate!
