Default My Old fiesta's From start to finish (Warning loads of pics)

Hello as i dont have a fiesta anymore i throught i would show you all the ones i did have and had a load of fun doing, hope you enjoy.
I have had two fiesta's myself but my bro also had one which i did all the mods on, it was the car i learnt to paint and weld on as well as many other things

First off here's my bros one when he got it, XR2I Zetec


Started doing the mods he wanted



Then it looked like this once finished



Then he got rid of it


Oh well then i got this fiesta xr2i zetec to do up while i was learning to drive, it was in a poor way and needed loads doing but it ran very well and had very little rust.

This is it when i got it to my mates workshop



Then the fun began, started sorting the dents etc out first and replacing panels and bits




Then i was going to respray the car myself and did one side but it didnt look as good as i wanted



So then i thought i would have it painted by a pro lol, and as i was doing that i changed the bumpers and did a few more mods before it got painted


Modded the front bumper



This is how it looked before it went to the bodyshop get some funny looks on the way there lol


Then it was at the bodyshop for ages so went to have a look to see how it was doing


Then i got it back all painted and looking very nice



Then started to put all the bits i got on it, Clear rears, custom repeators, st170 brakes, coilovers, spoiler, 17" ace 112 wheels,






Then i fitted the mk5 fiesta dash and door cards and frst recaros





Then it was pretty much finished



But then i needed some ICE lol Full JL Audio install

[IMG]


Then i sold it Here it is the day it went


BUT then a few months on i got a email with this pic in, very sad to see




Oh well didnt worry me as i had brought a fiesta RS turbo

Ok so then the next project began lol here it is when i picked it up Not bad for £650 lol low miliage and loads of history BARGAIN


Got it home and cleaned it to find it was very clean under the dirt, it did need work but only small things





First job was to get it running right which was only a bad boost hose lol and then i did a t3 convertion on it


Then got the car in a mint conditon



I started getting bored of the look of the car and started to smooth it all off lol



Then went for some mk6 rs2000 wheels and had them powder coated black


Then fiited some pro alloy products and modded the front bumper to suit



Then started to tidy the engine bay up and add some bling and also relocated the battery




Also fiited some Cobra sidewinders with retrimmed rear seats to match



It was then pretty much finished and an offer come up i couldnt say no too so sold it
Here it is before it went and the it at ford fair on the fast ford stand








Hope you enjoyed it, i know i have

Cheers

Couple of cracking Fiesta's you've had there.

I think they're even more impressive given how they looked when you first got them!

Top work mate well done!

£650 for that FRST is a massive bargain in my opinion! Looked pretty clean even when you first got it.
