FINALLY...I have found some time to get a build thread going!

Having owned the car for the last 3-4 years, things are finally on the move to making it half decent...

After my spell of my old Escort S2 RS Turbo, then moving onto a Focus RS Mk1...its about time I was back in a Ford!

A brief history of the car, I bought it from a guy who had owned it since new, he was an older gentleman who was apparently 92 years old! The car itself was in awesome condition, and being a one owner car, had a full ford service history, all mechanical work carried out by Ford, most MOT's and received things like all documentation for the car - even a letter from Ford to say thank you for buying the car etc! At the time it had 53k on the clock genuine with all the MOT history to back it up...the guy was literally covering 200-300 miles a year in it! You could tell 5th gear wasn't used so often as it was stiff to get it into fifth

Brief spec of the car
Ford Orion 1.3L - properly base spec!
53k on the clock genuine
No central locking
No electric windows
No electric side mirrors
Green tinted glass

I know a brief spec I wanted with the car...
