Been changing a few bits over the last couple of weeks trying to get most of the exterior done before the Cumbria show then the engine side of things before the end of May now i've manged to get 650 miles on the new engine.

I was going down the RS500 rep route and purchased a lower rear spoiler and fog grills but that has been scrapped and now the car is being treated to an array of new standard parts including a set of Apex -35mm on Koni struts to replace the standard ride height,wheels & dealership plates.

Next jobs are get all the plastics repainted, fit the new indicators and lights all round, refit the standard front splitter and side mouldings.

New spotless wheels and tyres added


This how the car currently stands -35mm and new rims

I know what you mean Paul i was never 100% happy with it when i picked it up as i prefer the standard car, side moulding and new lights all round should sort the exterior looks out

Right now the Fiesta has gone to a new home and i have the time to concentrate on the 3dr now ready for the Cumbria regional show on the 11th May ....

The car is booked into the bodyshop for monday to have all the plastics repainted, the front end up the A-pillars, engine bay, bonnet then Fit the side mouldings and pin stripe

- New bumper indicators


- Engine bay sticker set


- Custom pin stripe kit


- Side mouldings (£200 ) but well worth it as the quality is perfect: contact email sue.colbourn@ami-models.co.uk



- Bumper moulding inserts


- Bailey oil breather


- Reconditioned Blue rocker cover (picking this up at heaves)


- AP 6 paddle clutch


- Blue samco's


Other bits.....

- Grp A strut brace

- New side repeaters

After all the cosmetic stuff is sorted i've booked in a trip to Motorsport developement in May to set-up the new engine which i can't wait for

More updates next week

White wheels are well gone mate.

Bodyshop Update time

Here we go again, another car in the bodyshop and a few tears at it being ripped apart but it'll be mint when finished

It looks like the whole car is having a respray now not just the plastics.

Rust issues are very minimal which is good, a small bit under the airbox and a bit at the bottom of the rear passenger arch.

Look at what we've done today

Engine bay work, a couple of areas on the inner wings needed sorting





Area of concern on the passenger wing, this has had a previous repair which was built up with fibreglass so all that has been removed and a piece welded in and a sheet of metal welded from underneath and red oxide applied.




And the arse end




More updates tomorrow

Well I'm hoping for it to be ready It's getting the rear end of the car prepared and primed tomorrow so i'm hoping it's done really for the middle of next week. It's the plastics that are going to need quite a bit of time to prepare but I'll be cutting it closely. Are you a member of our local group?
