Default Introducing me and my ride

After a bit of wandering around on this fourm, I decided the time had come for me to introduce myself...

So I'm Joris, living in Belgium, 18 years young atm and seriously mad about Ford

Now about a year ago I had the opportunity to buy a RST S1, an opportunity which I took happily (who wouldn't??).

The plans, a full rebuild! It'll take me a while since I'm a student (low on cash for most of the time, stupid beer ), but once it's finished, I'll come over to England to prove that europeans also can build really nice cars

To end, a few piccies of the car, the workshop and the progress

Hope you guys like it

Hey mate, welcome car looks cool, hope ure keeping them vents off too!!

i noticed on the last pic on the right, the block of wood with the bolts in.....if these are head bolts, throw em away and get new ones as they stretch and arent meant to be re-used as far as im aware!
