After 3yrs and 8months it finally lives.

Gotta say massive thanks to Steve @ A1 Rally Sport.
Also thanks to Marco for stopping me from selling it many times over,lol

Just got to finish off a few bits and pieces and then i can start to run it in.

This is how it looks at the moment

 

 

Looks hard as nails mate what spec is it?

 

I love that I want a 3 door even more now

 

How long's it been now Gav? 3 years?

Glad one of us actually kept their car and finished it!

 

well tidy nice work

 

Same spec as the A1 Fiesta was but with a GT40 instead of GT35

I know, i was going to sell it soo many times

 

well done gav

 

Engine pics please

Outside looks very nice though I'd put the door strips back on if it was mine though... Or maybe I wouldn't... Can't decide

 

I am going to put the stripes on mate as i think it looks too plain without them.

No engine pics at the moment as its on a crappy T3 for running in and while the manifold is being made.
Also its on coke bottle breather till i get that made up aswell

 

Was also going to say about the side stripes, looks very nice

Hope the running in goes well

Steve.

 

looks great

 

NICE ONE

 

Looks great, hope mine does,nt take that lond

 

GT40?!?!?!?

Glad to see you have got this far now Gav. Well done mate.

 

looks good. GT40! sounds like it'll be fairly nippy too!

 

Got the spare one off Rod.
Will be going for a top speed run, then might put a smaller turbo on and use as a track car.

Hoping to join the lads out on the track rather than standing on the pit wall.

 

Looking good matey

JJ

 

Love it Gavin

Well done Gav you must have the patience of a saint

There were times i was ready to set fire to it to be honest with ya mate.
Just hope it was worth the wait

Good to see it alive Gav & well done to Marco & Steve

Certainly looks different from when i last saw it. (Glad the pin stripe has gone )

When the big A1's doing up the quarters

 

He will need it as well.... waiting for that Turbo to come on boooost

 

Very nice, are you sticking with the black alloys?.

 

Yes mate sticking with those wheels, it took me 3 years to find a set.

Ahh the words of a man in fear of getting passed, lol only messing mate but it will be good to join you lot out on track and as said if i think its too laggy i will be going Gt35 or even Gt30 for a bit of resposiveness.

Sticky
Dunno if i want to do the stickers up the 1/4 now. undecided at the moment as i will be using the car on the road aswell.
Think the sticker thing looks cool on a track car but unsure for the road.

 

Few interior pics









This is not finished either but i just wanted to get the car to a state where it can go for MOT and start running in.

 

ENGINE BAY!!!!!

 

Well done Gav, Glad you've stuck in there and got it finished.

 

Nice one
