Default my saph project!

Hi im pritty new to passion ford and i have to admit im a looker rather than a poster!!! sorry! some of the projects on here are f**king mad!! makes mine look pathetic lol,, anyways this is my project for the last year! it was a bit of a dog when i first got it, its my 1st RS but its taking shape..... let us know what you all think





They were pics taken the day i bought it in may last year








They were taken after a really long couple of weeks of scrubbing! i drove it round for a little while but it was standard, i was getting a little board of it and one wet night and a slippery roundabout later...... you can prob guess the rest lol! i managed the bend a rear arm and break a wheel,, dent the wing.......... so instead of stripping it i decided to put it right, replaced the intire rear beam, found a little tin worm so welded it all up, undersealed the complete underside of the car, polybushed troughout....






so i knew now i had a good base to start with, had the wing replaced but the paint was crap anyways so.........








yep...... i had to be different and i decided on imperial blue, i know it isnt really original but as i said, i like to be different!







theres a few pics when it was on the escort cossie wheels, looked really good but was chewing my arches to death!...... since it got the car i was a little smokey the guess what was next on the cards!...









so thats pritty much it so far! the engines back out again at the moment as i got a rattly gudgon pin! but she shall be back on the road really soon,,, i hope!









thanks for looking!
