Default Sierra sapphire Ghia

Thought Id do a thread on my 2.0 Ghia saph. Had her just over 4 years now, it's gone from standard car, to Cossie rep, then track car, then back to road car, then drift car. And now she's going back on the road as a pretty standard car.

Il copy's and paste my posts off another forum

This was October 2011

Picked this saph up at the weekend, taxed and tested. Tidy overall, needs a few bits doing the bumpers are nackered and the doors have a few dents but the arches are solid and underneath is very good exept one inner sill needs a small patch.

Shes getting there, got the drivers side to mop tomorrow. And i might start fitting the front end up.

Im putting off the dashboard change for as long as possible, but it looks like that will go ahead this weekend, just looking into changing the colour of all the dash lights.
