mk2 fiesta 4x4 cosworth project *update* new arches fitted
starting this thread for nmmfast, (steve)
i'm sure he will learn how to post pic's and update but thought i'd start it as it's going to be a good project
steve bought MK'S blue fiesta and has always said how he'd like a cossie'd fiesta.

steve had it picked up and drove it a couple of times and it developed a massive oil leak had really bad piston slap and clutch cable kept coming off,
so action was taken and this is the start of the project. enjoy
we stripped it to a minimum
plans are a full cage, completely stripped out inside new seats, change of fuel systemand a gs motosport 400+bhp engine with t4
wide arches
inside stripped for dash to be flocked and cage to be made
thats all the pic's i have at the moment but twins will have a few and steve will hopefully get some better one's on he's camera, i will take some better one's with a proper camera rather than my iphone

Yeman i've seen this car loads over the years when Sev was building it! He has had the car AGES then finally got it all done a few months ago... Have got a load of pics of it somewhere, got an email address I can send them on to?
Shame the engine wasn't so good
Sev was gonna use the one out of his EsCos but bought that lump instead iirc...
Look forward to seeing how it turns out!

just the engine wasnt put together to well, major oil leak from the head gasket and inlet put together with silicone sealer
steve decided to strip it out completly inside and put he's own marque on the car
e mail is ronnie_nag@hotmail.co.uk
would be good to put some more pics up
Loved that fiesta, Sev used to be out in it every weekend, would have had it myself if i could have afforded it.
The arches are Mk1 Golf arches if you didn't already know..

Posting some here dude as files are quite big to send... have got a load more somewhere (including some from 3 or so years ago!) so will stick them up when I find them!
(beam etc were all stripped down and powdercoated!)
I had an education on cossie running gear with that car courtesy of Sev lol...

did you see his twin engined rst mk1 fiesta when you were there
thanks for the pic's mate
not sure how it handled he only drove it a couple of times, i'm sure it'll handle ok
will keep the post updated as i go round their, stripped the head off to inspect the engine and piston number 4 has about 5mm of movement side to side
when joe's engine is built i can guarantee this is going to set some quick times!
dont think so mate? unless the guy was going to before he sold it complete?
