Got a few more mods to do so should end up looking rather well Not a bad 40th birthday present to myself lol

Gutted its an early shell so has the narrow gearbox tunnel - unfortunately I cannot fit my hybrid MT75 box so will have to stick with the wanky Type9 for now.

Plan now is to get it up to standard and enjoy for the Summer whilst I get the Saph 24v'd with the now spare hybrid box. Once that is done, the 3dr will be coming off the road for a bigger tunnel and most likely my YB and T5 box running on Omex management.

 

All work is currently being carried out by Jim Robson from Surrey Sierra Spares

Top bunch of lads

 

fucking heck Ran - thats awesome !

 

cheers Kam

Need a new set of rear lights too but i aint paying 300 quid for a set

 

See if you can machine polish these lenses? If not, get some off a facelift saph and cut to shape

 

will try and polish them first - not gonna put saph lights on a 3dr

 

That looks a minty shell mate

 

Very nice mate

 

look forward to your progress, anymore pics?

 

Plate looks great

I went over my rear lights with 2000 grit wet and dry with plenty of fairy liquid in the water.

G3 compound afterwards and they came up like new

 

Cheers guys. Shell is painted Frozen White

This is when i went to view the car, back in January


On the trailer to Surrey Sierra Spares


New indicators and fog grills fitted


Door strips should be getting fitted also

RS500 lip spoiler fitted

Front splitter will be fitted once the correct one arrives from Ian Herron.

Also have some split rim style alloys to go on with brand new rubber

 

Nice project.

 

Looks famliar, did you buy this off a lad called Pete?

 

Nice car, even the hocks suit it well

 

Yes I know Pete very well. The interior out this car is from one of my old 3drs as I sold him a load of parts years ago when that car got stripped

 

That does look rather nice

 

Very nice matey.

 

Does look nice that.

 

Will get the last bits done on it next week mate, should look the part once the finishing touches are done

 

sorted Jim - will be taxing and insuring it next week too so feel free to take it for a drive mate

 

Oh I will , might have to make that kit go missing lol

 

I was chatting to him the other night about his new car.

I just hope you don't get as many negative comments as he did.

 

I can give a few negative comments about how badly the cars been built

 

 

It will get better over time.

Will look totally different once i get the new wheels on too

 

good to see you back in a ford and with jims help its bound to be a cracker

 

cheers Steve and leave that alone Jim lol

 

Brilliant project mate nice find always fancied one of these didn't realise the tunnel was smaller tho.

 

this is my 4th one

actually 5th if you include the one i had to reutrn back to the seller

the tunnel will be geting chopped out later this year or next for a proper one and most likely a yb conversion

 

Il be getting the grinder out next year ready for a proper engine

 

Jim managed to get the wheels on, however there is an issue with the center caps not fitting and a couple of other mods required for the front wheels to sit where they should but im sure it will be sorted.

Looks pretty good on those wheels

 

Those wheels look ace

 

Liking the new wheels a lot

 

Jim has fitted the side strips and amber side repeaters - looks a lot better now

 

Yeah sets it off much better top work!

 

Not a bad daily lol

 

 

Looking good fela wheels really set it off

 

Stunning. I like that type of wheels on a 3door.

 

Looks great, coming along nicely
