Default Fiesta Mk1 Project 'White Devil'

Firstly let me introduce myself, My name is Arron and im 24 and my job is a Fork Lift Truck Engineer..

I have owned a couple of Fords up to now starting with my Sierra Cosworth which was previously owned by my cousin Gaz. It was my first taste of ford blood when he let me drive it when i was 17. ever since that day i wanted it off him and eventually i got my hands on her.. she was running a t34 with back cut blades and mar-m shaft and anti-lag, stage 3... all work carried out by Motorsport developments... Gaz coilovers and comps... she was a beauty,



After my cossy i then decided to buy my cousions focus rs off him as he needed cash to buy a house, she was a graham goode built 320bhp 454ftlb torque monster nick named lucifer...!



Unfortunatly i had to sell them both due to running costs, however my circumstances have changed for the better and now have the money for a project...

So here goes, i came about my mk1 fiesta due to a very kind neighbour knocking at my parents front door asking if i would like to have his unfinished mk1 fiesta as he no longer had the time or the space to complete restoring it... i asked him how much he wanted and he told me i can have it all for nothing!! bonus!

this was a offer i could not refuse! so with a huge smile and firm hand shake we organised me picking it up, however i have other plans in mind for this White mk1!!

into my garage it went and were it stayed for a good 6 months with me not touching a single thing up untill now!! after checking the shell over i was please to find the only rust was a small bit of surface rust..



First thing was first to remove engine and strip out engine bay as above...
