Default Newbie bought a sierra 4x4 cosworth

Hi All

Though i have been looking at this site and watching people build some brilliant cars for some time, but have only just registered due to buying a ford.

When i was in my youth i was addicted to fords owning (2 x Super sports and 1 x Escort Custom) but then move onto buying Subaru's instead of Cosworths even though Cosworths were still very close to my heart. I think at the time i wanted something newer. (were talking 1997 here) Escorts were out of my price range and sierra's just seemed dated at the time.

But now i am back in a position to purchase said car i didnt want to miss out on a childhood dream.

So, here she is, my K Plate Cosworth which has been dry stored for nearly 7 years. In that time one owner couldnt get here running correctly and spent £4000 on the engine with reciepts to prove. He still couldnt get the car to run properly so he sold it to the person i bought it off. He did find the fault and fix it but lost interest in the car and again put it into storage.

Thats the story upto now so i'll let the pictures tell the rest.

Thanks
