Default My focus. (56k no hope LOTS of pics!)

Not a major project in comparison to most of these on here.

Shiney engine isn't it!!



Well it was till it did this







Start of the strip down





This was the damage







Had a nice brand new one sat ready to go in.



And its out





New one in!



The engine all dressed up



A very happy me as i have never done anything like that before!! just brakes and springs tbh.

even happier when this arrived for xmas!!



happy untill





my next major task

Stripped



Dead bits





i was lucky that there was no structural (sp)

And the rebuild









Now back on the road i started modding it again

Rollcage


all red rear lights


steering wheel


Wheels


old ones were buggered


colour coded headlights and smoothed bumper with zetec fogs


Boot install


engine bay with BMC



As i said nothing major in comparison!! but i am quite pleased with myself!!

so pleased infact i mad the bent piston and trophy
