Default my fiesta turbo restoration more pics 24th 11th

i bought it a few weeks ago as it used to be mine i thought i knew it well but i didnt lol .i couldnt remember it being that clean but we stem cleaned the underside and it was mint all the brake pipes are still ford green so i decided not to breack it . it had some problems like the heater matrix had let go so we dicided to take the head of to be shure and the block was cracked so it was taken out and another one sourced from our parts bin so we rebuilt the motor with all new parts and made it look a bit nicer




more to follow over the next few weeks we are going to clean it right up and give it a repaint and some other changes
