Guest John Posted January 17, 2015 Share Posted January 17, 2015 Well i tried to buy this last year but wifey said no!!!!! I got the nod it was up for sale so my lad kyran has brought it to restore & as a investment. Has been stored approx 11 years in a dry garage no welding needed looking at it. Back to original spec.

Guest Xr3iInUS Posted February 24, 2015 Share Posted February 24, 2015 Do you ever find a build sheet under the seats/carpet? In my US Escorts and Mustangs they've always been under the rear seat carpet. It's a full sized paper sheet that lists some more details about the car. Not sure if you call it the same thing over there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest John Posted February 24, 2015 Share Posted February 24, 2015 no such luck finding a info sheet like that Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Xr3iInUS Posted February 25, 2015 Share Posted February 25, 2015 (edited) I found the build sheet for the wife's Brand New Fiesta Zetec S in the front coil Spring That doesn't sound like a safe place! Do you call them build sheets too? Edited February 25, 2015 by Xr3iInUS Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest El87cabi Posted February 26, 2015 Share Posted February 26, 2015 Good to see another cabi being brought back to it's former glory Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RScab Posted February 28, 2015 Share Posted February 28, 2015 That doesn't sound like a safe place! Do you call them build sheets too? Its not lol There Called Build sheets in the General Assembly Plant - normally fitted to the Plastic cover they put on the front wings to protect them Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Xr3iInUS Posted February 28, 2015 Share Posted February 28, 2015 Ahhhh - ours are typically stuffed under the rear seat carpet, I think some other makes put them up in the seat springs. They usually survive as long as you don't have holes in the floor. As soon as the snow clears up I'll push the car outside and see if I can find anything. As far as I know all my body panels are original. Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
