Current situ on the fiesta is she has had new,

Cross member
Front panel
2x Inner wings
2x Wings
Battery tray
2x cills
2x Part inner Cills
2x Inner back arches
2x Outer back arches
Full back panel.

16 panels

Strong, safe and no rust

Garage wise, just a few finishing bits really, most of the floor and walls have had two coats of paint and the pit is leak and damp free. I'll get some pics up when she's home . Sorted power and lighting.

Stunning work can't wait to see it in the road. There's a white one somewhere near Ruthin that looks to be in immaculate condition.
