Do you have a brother on this forum under the username leedsrhino?

We haven't heard from him or his cars for sometime either.

With the greatest of respect, from the quality of the workmanship shown in this thread so far, and your past projects, I doubt your skillset is up to performing the above, and all you will end up with is two hacked up motors down at the scrapyard......

Sorry mate no hes not my brother haha. I dont think my brother is on here.

He's taking the piss. Leedsrhino ''Modified" a mk2 Fiesta and did stupid mods. I imagine he is implying that your car is shit. To be honest, the work you've put in is great, and I'm unsure on the outcome, but if you pull it off it will be unique! Great stuff so far, and I am keeping an eye on this thread

All comments welcome ive already thought about this and its not really cost affective so the 3 door escorts gone the scrapper and the sierra shell with some parts on sale with some other parts going into a kit car.

My other cars were like that when i got them i didnt make themlike that i was just starting out when i got em many years ago and was looking to save em some survived some didnt but its all about learning.

The escort im doing now is a college project im a transport engineering lecturer so i thought the students could learn about doing body work and other custom mods the cars ive done are not fords so i havent put them on here but they have been featured in various tuning mags. The car will look better than it does now and will be done proberly the kit is not for this car so it will look worse before it looks better and every step is a different challenge but it will be done well.

To be honest I think if this is done well and the paint finish is good then this may not look too bad.......I've definitely seen worse

HaHa cheers for the heads up well we will have to show him wont we.It will look worse before it looks better people should really know that.
The car wont have big bumpers or anything crappy just stuck on im just going for a wider look with some engine mods, brakes and suspension when the bodys sorted.

Im unsure about it too but you've got to try new this he who dares wins and all that hopefully it pays off.

Hows the car coming along, the other 5 door MK6 one is coming along nicely!

PaulS

Jesus, the car was worth a carrot, maybe a potato before you started, but now you've ruined it! Why?

Spend the time and money on something that warrants it, like an E30 BMW. You won't get fuck all when you try and sell it, seriously. It's a 5 door Escort full of filler FFS.

I personally do not stand for snobbery and anti social remarks towards members hence why that stupid remark posted by pauls cost him his use of pf.

RSNUT!
