Default S2 Rebuild in Essex (mini update 09.08.08)

OK, i've been putting off starting a Resto' thread on here for a couple of reasons, one of which is i've got the attention span of a Goldfish, therefore idleness/boredom sets in pretty quick (you have been warned!)

The thought of constantly taking/editing pics & reguarly updating the thread sounds great in theory, but time will tell I guess ( not exactly selling this thread am I)

Also the fact that my chosen moneypit is yet another S2 (another Essex based one at that................... so that's 0/10 for originality )

Anyway we'll give it a whirl............................................

Always, always wanted an S2 , being old enough to have legally driven one when they were still available new from Ford, the fact that me' ol' man had a chipped S2 around 92, and lets be honest, they had street cred back then and arguably even more so nowdays.
So after getting my kicks on 2 wheels for more years than I care to remeber (and after the missus' made me promise to give bikes up after a kind ol' lady decided to remodel my Blade ) I picked up what seemed a good genuine G plater off a fella off here.



Dont look to shabby I know, and loved running around in it for a couple of months, the plan was to chip it and use it as a cheap weekend toy to fill the void left by my lack of kneedown & mono' wheel thrills. (man I miss my bikes )

Cheers
