Hello to everybody, finally I have been decided to post some pics of my 3door painted in blue.
But first of all a few pics when the car was white and we were working on it.
![](https://i42.photobucket.com/albums/e336/DANROM/DSC01022-2.jpg)
A lot of stuff waiting to be refurbished
![](https://i42.photobucket.com/albums/e336/DANROM/DSC01024-2.jpg)
Nuts and bolts. Some have been refurbished some have been changed
![](https://i42.photobucket.com/albums/e336/DANROM/DSC00958-2.jpg)
No rust.
![](https://i42.photobucket.com/albums/e336/DANROM/DSC00964-1.jpg)
engine ready to be disassembled
![](https://i42.photobucket.com/albums/e336/DANROM/DSC00957-1.jpg)
Oh my god. So many cables to clean and to recover, but I have done it.
It took me almost a week
![](https://i42.photobucket.com/albums/e336/DANROM/DSC00961-1.jpg)
![](https://i42.photobucket.com/albums/e336/DANROM/DSC00952-2.jpg)
![](https://i42.photobucket.com/albums/e336/DANROM/DSC01098-1.jpg)
incredibly they came from FORD
![](https://i42.photobucket.com/albums/e336/DANROM/DSC00971-1.jpg)
These are my comps, ready to fit again after passing the MOT

And here she was in white, waiting for the big surgery.
AND NOW SHE IS BLUE
![](https://i42.photobucket.com/albums/e336/DANROM/DSC01307-2.jpg)
She arrived at home. Ready to fit the engine.
Then she will be returned back to the painter

I forgot to say that all this job has been done in Spain by my mates JuanCarlos and MIguelAngel and by me.
It took me almost 4 years.
I hope you enjoy

I have all the modifications homologated, but in my case I have homologated two types of tires, 215/35/18 and 225/35/18 but have to be the same for four wheels, and I have 215 in the front and 225 at the rears
So to avoid problems, I will go with the 17s which are homologated and once the MOT passed i swap them.

Rebuilding the car I was about to take it off the car, but at the end thinking about the Mallorcan weather I kept it.
