Default My Mk3.5 Fiesta Project, If your at all interested.. UPDATED

Hi, ft.com people will know and probably get annoyed with me. But i thought id put the pics up here.

Its a 1995 M'Reg Mk3.5 Fiesta Equippe, With 19,000miles. Has PAS, and thats about it. 1.3 CFi engine.

Most recent pics here..

Looks high in the pics, Cant see tyres much. The rear should miraculously drop a bit in the next couple of weeks..

















As you can see, No curbing

Oh and nice painted brakes

More info, pics and a spec on my site! Click sig.

Thanks, Max

Few spots on the valance, Bit on the door sil in the midle where someone sliced through the plastic thing and waters got caught under. Will sort it sometime.

Nothing major though.

UPDATE!

Its a big bigger than i thought it would be..



And testing my headlight, Some ring ice blue bulbs but they are just about white (didnt want blue but they look yellow still here as the headlights are not actually on so they dont have full power) and white led sidelights..
