Default My RS1600i - just got her home

well here she is, im finally a ford owner again











plan is to strip the car and sort out the few rusty pieces of floor underneath, hammerite and underseal underneath the car as well as powder coat wishbones and antiroll bars etc, so its nice n rot resistant... for a while at least

then its a full respray in the same black and re-apply the stickers, standard styling but with no locks.

fit my 2.1 zetec engine and t34 turbo

and then add a set of cossie 4 pots, a nice suspension kit to go with the poly bushes already fitted and a set of 17" diamond cut RS 7 alloys.

cant wait to get crackin' with the knackin'
