The wheelbase isnt that far removed from a sierra!! Its running a std length prop and all sierra running gear underneath
Back end still kicks out like a bastard though

You have come too far to give up now, maybe the ring date wont see the wiring done and if not just go with the crowd and enjoy yourself.

The electrics are not a big problem, we could sort it for you but not before the ring though.

As per our phone call mate - the wiring shouldn't be too bad having looked through the diagrams!

Don't be a f*cking retard by throwing in the towel over electrical issues, its a Ford, they come in the package! This is too big a project to just give up on!!!

been buying more bits recently







got a full RS kit for it all brand new apart from passenger rear quarter not sure when its going on the car but wanted to get hold of it before it gets even harder to get hold off

Daveysaff

iTrader: (9)

Recently

tony21tq

Vasey is a shite hole fella you should know that. The french thing is just waiting for its exhaust to be built and its good to go.

I think you need to keep the focos a little different and not put all the rs kit on it. Its good to see her finally sorted and working well for you.
