Those where pictures from about two years ago Id just got it back from being resprayed an rear arches done and i found that which made me think id just wasted money on a rot box.I had no money left and wonted it on the road so just plated/bodged them up.The car is now back off the road going zetec turbo so will have to attack them propally and scuttle too.Does the wings have to come of too replace the scuttle .

Looks good on the outside lol

I was doing a zvh in a 1.8 zetec.I had the block coverted and then built it up the other day on skimmed pistons and went to tighten up the last bolt on the water pump and it kept going round so took the pump off and it had pull on the metal and cracked the block.It looked like they had fitted the new waterpump plate in a bad place because they had drilled and tapped in about 3m thick. metal.So im now going 2.0 zt.So if you need zvh bits ive got some if yer interested
