haven't updated in a while so here goes. well the head gasket on off side has given up. seems like stretch bolts used so pressure of turbo found this problem. all parts are now bought and will be sorted after the new year. front indicaters and rear lights back as standard. bought a set of yellow fogs for front as thought they would look good with the blue. new tailgate decal bought as other not fitted straight. new ford logo added already. inserts will go black and front splitter damage to be sorted and resprayed. it'll get there slowly as time allows but booked to go on 4 day classic car run to ireland in april so better get it done.
bought another car aswell, supra mk11 so time once again split. probably shouldn't have done it but there we go.
