well as i have completed my second project this year (both zetec s fiesta's) thought it was about time i raised the bar a little and got a car i have always wanted that was sort of fiesta based but a little special!

So enter one FRP.... number 0336

I got the car without even looking at it, sent a mate up to get it so the frst time i saw it was as the trailer reversed into my unit, overall am quite happy with it but there is going to be a lot of work neded to get it to its full glory!!!

Here is how it arrived!






So get it into the unit and had a closer look, and try to find out why it smelt quite bad inside as it had been shut up and no water had got in from after the crash..... opened the boot to find this


Yes someones frozen shopping, well once frozen! Thanks for that!!!

so emptied that out and removed boot carpet and then set about geting bonnet off to see how bad the damaged is, overall not too bad, both legs needs attention on the end and a new front panel then a bit of paint over the car but could be alot worse and is saveable by looks of initial inspection!




so out came the porta power to try and get the rads out...




looking better already!
