thanks mate,hope yours goes alot quicker than what mine is,couple of pics of today.







also removed the fin today while is was waiting for the paint to dry hade to laugh at the wood screw holding it on.


and this aerial has to go.

 

Its defo a solid shell.I bet you just want it all built up now.

 

i do mate but its taking an age to do,its one if those jobs you wish you had never started.
got the drivers side floor to do,one rear wheel arch and the front arches then it ready for stone chip.

 

looking good as usual matey keep saying it but this is going to to epic when finished i cant wait to see it!

 

alot of good work gone into the car so far, should all pay off when shes finished

 

little update:not alot happening still removing the old underseal this is taking longer than what i thought it might,been collecting parts though let me know what you think,bought this last week and thought id offer it up to see how it looked.

genuine lower boot spoiler


thought it would be rude not to try on the top spoiler also


also bought some new headlights


rear drop links and fuel line clips from http://www.carpartsexpress.co.uk/



been in the shed today thought id try on the fuel pressure regulater.



not 100% sure im going to use it but had to try it on,thats it for now.

 

looking good mate youve put some work into this like! is the outside getting repainted aswell or is that already mint?

 

it will all be getting painted mate,to be honest mate i could have left it the way it is but ill need the spoilers and rs500 front bumper and the aerial hole filled so will need painted anyway so might aswell do the whole car.

 

Excellent progress mate, keep up the great work

 

only had half a day at work today so thought id crack on with removing underseal from the n/s inner wing.not long to go now only have to do the o/s to do and thats all the underseal remove.

 

fook thats clean lol

 

Some superb work there fell, love the Inlet pics...

 

looks awsome fella, just noticed your down the road, im in Roker. i cant wait to start doing this to mine.

 

good luck with yours mate,hope you've got plenty of time on your hands,some times i wish id never started removing the underseal but im nearly there now.

 

havent been on here properly in a few weeks i thought this would of been finished by now mate lol!

 

its far from finished yet mate,all the underside is in primer now and started to do the seam sealer,nearly ready for stone chip.
couple of pics for you.
aerial hole now filled.






also pulled out the jacking points the best i could.


and the engine bay as it stands.

 

Awsome m8, cant wait to see this driving about. wish mine was moonstone lol

 

nice work mate its a shame about the jacking points they will all ways let the under side down but still not every one gets on the floor to look under the car keep at it

 

cheers guys,might still do a bit of work on the jacking points,maybe add a bit weld and grind flat but im sick of the sight of my grinder at the minute.i wont be going to the extent of cutting the floor out and working on them from the top.

 

Great prep work Jeff

 

good stuff mate

 

Coming on very nicely, shell is in very good nick.

 

lol you should of left it the way it was when i sold it to you jeff

Really looking foward to seeing it all finished m8, still miss the old girl big time but at least im back in the ford now

 

what did you get in the end mate?focus rs?

 

love the work you put in to IT! keep sending updates!

 

I got a focus ST3, got a kid on the way so I needed more of a family car.
