It never had a bara box in it. It had a standard 4x4 box then a rebuilt T5 when converted to 2wd.

I had the engine in it and 2wd.

Yeah it was a nice car when I had it, shame it's gone way down hill! The paintwork was mint when I had it, loom was still in it but not cut, that's wierd! Yeah it had heated seats in it when I had it, VERY rare I've never seen another with heated seats. I sold it as a shell with loom, bumpers, glass, lights and glass. Everything else was sold off by me. I broke the car. Col had it advertised as a complete car breaking on ebat but it wasn't. He had my shell as I sold it and some bits he had bought for it but never fitted.

i have had a resprayed, i have spent a small fortune on the car since i have had the car it now has a pro alloy rad, intercoller, turbo cooler, swirl pot, samcos, forge strut brace, escort cosworth turbo heat shield, t34/55, greys, uprated fuel pump, the usual stage 3 goodies

sits on gaz coilovers with 18 x 8 comp mo's, 225/35/18's parada spec 2 tyres

a little work to do with some uprated brakes

i changed the door cards as they were a little shrunk in places, full set of ford racing gauges and a secs monitor

oh fibreglass 500 lip spoiler

its pretty much text book stuff, but its looking how i wanted it too

that one you had was an inspriration in all honesty, it just looked right, with very few mods it really made the car stand out, i'll be keeping mine as a 4x4 though

was a shame the one you had got broken but he had his reasons

it had morrettes when i bought it but were traded on and new standard headlights with protectors fitted, it did have the 17 inch diamond cuts on but our notoriously bad roads took one of em!

so i swapped to 17 inch new mo's and then the 18's came along so i traded them, i swap a lot of bits these days as i got fed with hoarding parts lol



when i first had it



17 inch mo's



how the car looks now
