Default new car..it begins..

well i have just bought this from lincolndanny and thot i would put it on a project page.
plans are to keep it running and wait till i have gearbox and clutch for my zetec turbo motor and then swap them over in a weekend so i dont put this one off the road for any length of time and get fed up with it as you know what am like.
any way plans are already under way and speaking to dave(twins)we have got a cool new modded 90 spec front end sorted out for it.
only other plans just now are to sort out some big brakes for the front and rear.wont be any updates till after new year but just letting you guys know what am up to for next show season

Nice mate. Now you'll have a car you can drive! I know it annoyed you having a half built car sitting in the garage

What power is it at just now anyway? 170?

Just make sure you finish this one mate!

Looks good, i'd ditch the bonnet and raisers for a normal RST bonnet, and lob some Ambers on there and it'll be sweet as a nut mate!



P.S Possibly try the Azev's on there if you've still got them, would look sooooooooooo good!

The S1 was supposed to be sold to me but after un-answered pm's and un-returned phones calls i decided it would be best if i steered clear No clue if he still has it or has sold it to somebody else.

I've liked this since i 1st saw it with its previous owner - why didn't ford do silver RST's? Anyway, as Steve says, just needs a few tweeks to personalise it and its ready for show season.

Good luck mate, with both the car and the house and "Happy New Year".

Steven's gone AWOL. And I know this car's been sold a couple of times since..

I'm not sure but I think he's bought a house but I haven't seen or heard from him in almost a year.
