Default My Ford Fiesta Sport MKI

Well, this is my new car. A 1977 Ford Fiesta Sport MKI.

These photos are how I bought it last night.

Plans for the coming weeks:
- Pop my RS 4 Spokes on it.
- Put my pair of Cibie Oscar Spotlights on.
- Wide Rally Arches.
- Front Rally Spoiler.
- Rear spoiler off XR2.
- Orange Ford Racing logo/stripe down the side.









The Oh So Retro Interior (my fave part of the car I think!!!)



My Acoustic Back Shelf with Alpine Speakers:



And the mileage:



I love it!!!
