leedsrhinos126

Any ideas of what i can do with the fiesta?

Im gonna start with the front panel, wings are defo salvageable for the time being, bonnet is fooked for definate and head lights. Then what about modifying a bumper from a completely different car to fit ? anyone done this before or seen it done at fords shows?

RO13 rs cabriolet

modify a xr2i bumper to fit ive seen this done a couple of time on Mk2 fiestas.

RO13 rs cabriolet

here is one not too everybody's taste but an idea.

leedsrhinos126

ye thats what im thinking of, something a little different, it would take time but it seems ill have a huge amount of time spare due to needing the rare parts needed to put back on the road once again.
Thanks

leedsrhinos126

Right im now insured on my Escort van so its no longer for sale DOH! this was suppose to be the money for the repair bills on the mk2.
I need some alloy wheel nuts now to put my 7 spoke alloys on the van to make it look half decent. Cherrybomb on a diesel nah not really although i do have a spare.
Repairs on the fiesta will start shortly.

Mcgarry

latest mods a big improvement lol,shame bout that mate,any pics of the escort van with the wheels on? xr2i bumper looks shit btw

leedsrhinos126

A few days just need to get the alloy wheel nuts to fit them, need a tyre or 2 aswell.

chrisyeovil

you say you need rare parts, what parts are rare?

RSmark84

Um question is the insurance company going to be coming out to look at the car?

If yes and you haven't mentioned 'mods' your bum hole is going to hurt so much that that im gonna hear your screams all th way down here, when you get shafted.

gavrwdfiesta

some 1 go and steal hes fking cherry bombs please lol

leedsrhinos126

Front end parts, well they are rare for the price i am willing to pay for them.
Fiesta is on hold for now anyways, winter project. Gonna ditch the xr2 kit sort the rear arches, crash damage and any other body work and may change the colour as there's loads of bits on the body that needs sorting.

luke19790_3

thats most panels found.

leedsrhinos126

Yes but a bit too pricey for me, i've just shelled out Ł260 for deposit on van insurance so fiesta will be long term now. Plus ill have to spend money on the van e.g. needs a sill or huge weld repair, minor rust from front arch all the way along to the rear.
Any Ideas for the van to make it look less like an old builders van ??
Just gonna transfer sound system from car to van tomorrow then Alloys next week.

studabear

Well dude, sorry to see the damage to the fiesta,

leedsrhinos126

Just one of them things, it will be back on the road again soooon

Any Ideas for the van to make it look less like an old builders van ??


get some sweet neons under it and maybe a "cozzy" sunstrip would look sick! also spray the drum brakes bright green or summet

rsfido_1989

Ill give you Ł250 as it is.

PileOfRust

thought it had cossie brakes up front?

tis a shame,

have a look at mk1/mk2 fiesta crash test videos on youtube... the 30mph rear end shunt will frighten ya

Do the van fuck the fiesta! Your wasting your time and money!

leedsrhinos126

It's a decent van but F**k me its a shitty old slow diesel, reliable and economical but no thanks ok for now though. Just gonna clean it up need ideas what to do in the back also need atleast 1 more seat, how would i mount one with a seatbelt legally??

leedsrhinos126

NOPE not selling

bigryrs

iTrader: (10)

You should have used your cvh engine!! Plywood in the back with some kind of material covering it! Not sure on the seatbelt

rsfido_1989

shame as i have access to a xr2 donor car for it.

leedsrhinos126

Feel free to donate the xr2 to me a donor car would be perfect for this.

Java=Blue

its lasted pretty long tbf..

iv had a good 30min read on this 37 pager.. and i have to say, i havnt stopped laughing or smiling at the FUNNY SHIT iv seen..

please buy a saxo or a corsa next time and fuck that up with sunstrips !... mk2 fiestas are a rare breed nowadays and youve just lowered the number by 1 ...

Shoulda just sold it to R013... might have got new lease of life back then lol

AS IF you just turned down Ł250 as it is... the scrapmen will want you to pay THEM to take that away haha,,


is this the end for the Fez ?

rsfido_1989

lol donor is only up for grabs if i am using it. many a person with a deal in my phone. the deal is only for me to use.. not to pass on. shame tho bud.

leedsrhinos126

is this the end for the Fez ?[/quote]
NOPE!!!
No way its not the end more like new begining as i've said now its a winter project. Only front end needs new panels so gonna save and buy when needed. Fresh metal, weld the bits that need it and try make up a new front end ie bumperand maybe lights. Going for a totally different looking front.

Java=Blue

You should get a Delta3 front bumper

leedsrhinos126

Keep with the xr2 kit or not ???????????????????????????????
im thinking of getting rid but not sure so majority vote please
Pics underneath of how it looked with and without the xr kit. (Pics are from a while back)

Just an old pic from my profile.
Does this look this absolutely ace or what ??
Them wheels have got now

With kit brilliant with the wheels.

Without kit but the wheels don't go with imo but still nice.

leedsrhinos126

Got a pic or is it a big stupid after market shi**er

RO13 rs cabriolet

this is a delta 3 kit on a mk3 fiesta and in my opinion looks f..king sh.t and wouldn't dream off buying and delta kit or any daft kit.

RO13 rs cabriolet

atm

did you manage to keep hold of the xr2 front skirt aswell?

leedsrhinos126

Why cant i get on to the last page of my thread? meither can other people by the look of it. SORT IT

lukesaddy

reading this thread has reminded me why i wont take any of my cars to any mechanics apart from for MOT's.

well done in consistantly ruining that poor fiesta, please dont repair it, now is your time to get into a 106 or a corsa b where you and your cherrybomb exhaust (which does sound shit) belong

This car was dead when you bought it, let it rest in peace now!
