well, i have an escort cossie which has done two trips and done a couple of sub 10 laps of the ring, which unfortunately ate a plug last year and funds dont allow me to buy or build a new engine.

the puma has been bought, and is to be built on a budget, originally between me and a mate but he's since pulled out.

i originally intended to build for around a grand but ive stretched that budget to 2 grand for the peace of mind of doing everything i want to do.

plans are :-
full service of the car inc cambelt and waterpump etc,
clutch has started to slip so will replace
new coolant hoses throughout,
bigger brakes
axle spacers to the rear
coilovers, have cheap ones at the mo they are a bit crashy, im gonna source some better second hand ones but if the car behaves as i hope i will fit a set of gaz gha's.
racing puma airbox mod and k&n panel.
wheels and tyres
bucket seats and harnesses
strip interior

if the car behaves i will keep it and track it in the uk and ireland whilst i rebuild the escos.
