This is my car so far.
Im only 17 and this is my first car so its nothing special
i have a lot of plans 4 this car :
New bonnet (rs with scooby vent at top and bad boyed)
series 2 bumpers (front has centre section cut out)
New alloys
and loads other!
i will get done what i want donw when i get some money because i only get £30 a week at college so its not alot really so it takes me a while 2 get the bits i want!
the bonnet that is on these pics is the ones i done my self and i just put it on but its getting scraped when i get my new one!
hope u enjoy ppl!

iv sprayed a bit more of the interiour such as the speaker pods and the inner sill bits so loks loads better..iv also done the seat subframes which u cant see!

 

Welcome to the forum mate - noticed you were quite new!

Good choice of a car although they are getting harder to find now, that was my first car, a silver 2dr 1.3 Bonus! I absolutely loved it, ended up with a cammed 1.6 cvh in it, slammed on RST rims with 90 spec bumpers and a XR3i interior!

Lookin forward to seein progress on your motor.

cheerz m8 sweet moto!
gd spec 2!
im very interested in this carb overflow fueling! how do i go about that?
and i would like 2 put a 5 speed box in 2!
how hard r both of them and how do i go about getting them done?

 

for got 2 say!
tha back box is a universal fit and u can get them from Speed Shack
let me know how u get on with getting one and what u think!
alsoif i got a new rear box mine would b up 4 sale but i did get the box!

 

kool thanks ok to get the carb to over full theres 3mm alen key in the center of the carb at the bak turn this right about 2 turns (max) (also at ur own risk as i will not take resposibilty 4 things going wrong ) well put it this way im 15 (today ) and i can do a engine covertion with no exsperace and it works good so i think u should be ok to give it a try if u are just chagin the box u will have to take the engine out so u mite as well just get a new engine lol
do ya have msn ? if so add me lukelavender@hotmail.com
thanks

 

daz keep up that good work, what spray did you use ,and any chance of any more pics of the dash, full view of it, reason is you cant get glove box doors any more from ford , and i wanted a mint one, so i thought about painting the scratched one i have, but thought it woulkd look odd, but yours looks cool with the other bits done, MORE PICS IF POSS PLZ

thanks mate

 

iv done a few more bits so i will b putting them bk in the car this weekend so i will c if i can get a lend of a digi cam of my m8 and i will get a few done for u!
no problem

and for the type of paint i used, i used normal metal paint and primer with LOADS of lacquer on,give it a better finish

hope this helps and good look with yours!

 

i'm breakin a 3dr 1.3 popular so if u need anything just ask

 

wat pipe ya got ?

 

is completly standard, exhaust and a few other bits r practically new. A few bits have gone onto my mates bonus.

 

erm....dont think i need anything at the minuite!

if i do m8 i will b sure 2 let u know!

 

just been thinking...is the car standard?
whats its spec plz m8????

also i might be getting some new alloys for it,some 15" fox ones,so my Series 2 ones might be up for sale soon!

 

spec is standard 1.3 popular , no front lights, fuel tank, locks think thats all we've robbed so far, interior is in pretty good nick engine has done sumin like 94k and got mot's to prove that from about 1990. zorst was fitted and the car just stood for a year so is pretty much new. don't want much if anything for parts and whats left will just go wiv the car to the scrappy some time next week.

 

oh also know of a mk3 1.1 or sumin series one replica with xr3 interior, wheels, and brand new spax suspension for about 100 quid

 

shame them spax willnt have fitted on mine (even though iv got a koni kit on )

 

lookin good dude, if u can find me a link to that exhaust it would be great also how far out of the bumper does it sit?

keep the updates comin good lil project if u wanna chat or help gimme a shout

 

the distance which the exhaust sits out is ajustable i think but i will find out for defanit for you 2morrow m8.

as for the link,i will have a quick search now for 1 for u m8
