Helen Restoration
Helen has almost had the Saph a year now and over the last couple of months we have been busy on the Saph
First the boodywork
Had the roof painted, front wing, both bumpers, rear spoiler, rear quarter and rear panel and mirrors.
Does look nice now for a bit of paint
Have now fitted a new front spoiler and electric sunroof
Now on to the engine bay
Last year we purchased Paul Ripleys old engine out of his Escort
So new head gasget, water pump, new clutch also purchased a moongose exhaust
Also new intercooler, new rad, new fans, all new samco's in blue
Had the rockercover powdercoated and a few other parts
All back on the road now just a few little bits to do and then ready for this years shows.
