ok well its not really an update as such , karl finished the welding on the topside of the floor, it will be flipped , cleaned n welded ect ect
been speaking to a really gud mate andy aka northernbloke as hes been a little pissed off of late with his v8 escos ,
so we were having a bit of a natter and hes let on he was thinking of selling his wheels ,
so i bought them
the figure will be undisclosed , but lets say they cost less than Ł501 quid lol
what u think ?
kit just taped on for a visual idea
the fronts are a monsterous 8.5 inch wide ,and may require some modding of the inner arches ,
the rears however a a lil wider
some tubs me thinks ??
what u reckon folks ??

I've found that life I needed.. It's HERE!!
looks mint beefy, would it not of been better to keep the full sierra inner wing and do away with the escort one complete, thats how mine is with the tops trimmed to take the escort wing, to late now but i can see it being a cracking job

ok folks , i have to come clean i havent actually bought the rims , although they have grown on me since the piccy ,
i wouldnt like to guess the greif on fitting them , coupled with the fact andy would never part with them ,
and i reckon im about 2 k short on the 500 i offerd lol ,
but thanks to andy for letting me offer them up , and the link for some similar ones in 18s right with n offset

thanks again for letting me have a nosy , much appriceated bud
yeah there obviously eaiser ways to do the conversion , but were trying to retian a factory look to the shell , thus keeping the welding to a minimum and same with the sealer ,
think tomorrow sees pe popping to kneresbrough to help cragrat get his 3 door in the air to strip out the underside

Yep, you've found your wheels Beefy although you would need 4 - 6 inch arches at least on top of the body kit to get mine in
But yeah, they really suit the car so you may need to follow up that link I sent you
and mine are staying right here
