Default My Sierra Sapphire Ghia, Not just the usual resto (pic heavy!)

been meaning to do this for a while, will upload as i go.

i know it wont get loads of comments as its not an RS PMSL

H reg 2.0 ghia auto which i converted to manual and fitted poly gearstick bushes

3 owners, every MOT from new, 2 sets of keys, origional reg plates and window stickers from Ringways!

i was going to use the car to reshell my Rouse but decided against it

this is how i had the car after 3 days, and was used EVERY day

proper car for wafting about in IMO, Ghia seats are the tits!

car had no heaters when i got it, replaced waterpump, t/stat, plugs, leads, cap, rotor and made a òoooj difference.

snowflakes, chopped springs and matt black 4x4 vented bonnet
as pictured at ClassicFord @ pod last year


the car needed a wing on the front so i took the liberty of spending £258 on a pair of genuine ones and got the toolage out, Andyescos your my hero lol





while the wings were off i made some sexy plates to replace the curroded crud!





then the inner arches were Schtz`d and the new wings welded on, gaps are perfect, Quality Ford wings





then i took the liberty of taking the rear axle out, tank and exhaust off while i had the `box out and checked for rot, happily i found sod all! (although the o/s rear sill hass been patched for MOT some years ago)
floor was ground back with wire wheel and again Schutz`d and nailed back together with the tank getting a new fuel filter, painted bracketry, painted tank strap, stonechipped tank.







I have since gave up my garage buisness and got a job for a big company with company van so lost my use of ramps and workspace obviousley so the rest will be done from home

next post in a hour or so when i upload the rest of the piccies
