Post rs turbo engine into fiesta

Hi there, today i purchased an l reg fiesta wich started life as a 1.1 and has since been converted to an rs turbo with the rs turbo body kit and engine wich the bloke i brought it off said its out of a series 1 escort rs turbo and is mfi.


as far as i can see the engine is in the car, theres loadssss of stuff inside the car god only knows what it all is, loom, interior, clocks, the interior is stripped out ready for loom to go in, the loom is also out of an rs turbo escort series 1 again this is what the bloke says, the bloke started doing the conversion then lost his job and unit and it was sitting outside his house with no tax and seen as its been a childhood dream for me to own an rs turbo i thought why not !!!

he did get the loom in and have the engine running but he said because the loom was also out of the series 1 escort rs turbo there was physically too much wiring to fit into a fiesta so he took the loom out to start figuring out what bits he didnt need but the project stopped there for him due to his job loss etc.


it came to me today on the back of a transporter not running, ive just took his word for it and i just hope its a runnner, stupid of me i know but when i want something i dont stop to think these things over.


so basically id like to know where the hell do i start? can someone please help me, id ideally like someone to just come out to me and sort it all out for me because id really like this car to be on the road where it belongs and seen as ive wanted one of these for yearssss im passionate about getting it done one way or another.


to sum up thanks all of you for taking the time to read this eassay of mine and please excuse me if ive made spelling mistakes etc because im new to all this, thanks and i look forward to hearing from you all and hopefully become a member of the passionford community as im ford mad myself !!!!
