RWD Focus Cosworth Project
gave up on the van idea as it wasnt gonna suit my needs in the future, so i set out on the hunt for a new project.
As much as i tried i just couldnt get the idea of a focus cossie out my head . so i started to look for 3dr shell , and stumbled across one on here, cut a long story short , a deal was done and the shell was delivered to me today ( thanks gtechr ) the shell is pretty much bare http://i379.photobucket.com/albums/o...s/DSC00040.jpg http://i379.photobucket.com/albums/o...s/DSC00041.jpg http://i379.photobucket.com/albums/o...s/DSC00043.jpg http://i379.photobucket.com/albums/o...s/DSC00045.jpg but ive been collecting parts for a few weeks and have a few parts left over from other projects aswell. so i bolted these up , mainly so they dont get damaged in storage , as it all has to go in a little garage. http://i379.photobucket.com/albums/o...s/DSC00046.jpg http://i379.photobucket.com/albums/o...s/DSC00050.jpg http://i379.photobucket.com/albums/o...s/DSC00047.jpg http://i379.photobucket.com/albums/o...s/DSC00048.jpg and in its new home (for now) http://i379.photobucket.com/albums/o...s/DSC00051.jpg as for the spec looking for about 330 ish , will be rwd no cage , gonna go for a nice st170 half leather trim and full interior, (steve reckons it will all bolt back in bar the centre console) ohh and all bufty too lol went in to see steve at a1 yesterday. looks like its gonna go there, just need to book it in . been buying a few bits recently , complete 2wd rear beam 2wd front crossmember various mounts and brackets pedal box 170 mph clocks and i know theres more i just cant remember, now guys , what colour , ive been looking at the st170 grey or the new focus st white ? whats your opinions |
