Default Some pics of Bluey - been a long time coming...

first time I have taken some pics of the car in absolutely ages
More will be taken next week as going to give it a proper clean and no just a quick once over like today

Roll cage should be in with some interior parts (no carpet and needs welding to car)

It's all coming together, but just have to wait and see for the results

I've just fitted 315's to mine and they don't fill the wheels half as much as yours do

Cheers Nathan, next week will look even better

I still need a 90 spec front bumper ASAP!! I need to sell both my 90 spec smoothed bumpers and I also have my Morettes up for grabs too!

Also all pictures have been re-done to get rid of the fuzzyness and so they ain't having to be resized by the site

Looks excellent James.

I think it's about time Performance Ford did a feature on it. I know you'll never be 100% happy with any car you have, but ti looks smart as fook - get it featured.

Engine spec is.....

graph shows it all - can I just add this engine is 8 years old and still going with no rebuild since original build

Fully installed without use of bullet connectors - hate em!

Good fully functionable alarm system too

Benno, I like it better with the rear spats on too, was getting rather depressed seeing it look shitty so to speak

Gaz, not sure on the alloys myself. They ARE subtle I suppose but maybe would have preferred the silver ones

Richard, once the bodywork has been carried out and i have SOME interior in the car then yeah for definate Ben must think "will this EVER be ready"

Roll cage hopefully be going in this week along with a new sunroof mech/glass, some dash bits etc etc

Ming, you've got quads so you're biased and YES will be going for definate
