heres my two tone thats a bit battered ie need some tiny holes welding up and two door skins or doors oh and a newly painted front bumper if anyone will ever tell me the paint code lol

and obv it needs the 6x9 speaker rears replacing for standard and the aweful orion mk5 wheels are going soon althought there is some good tyres on them

hmmm im im sure they would or should be seam welded for the strength but i could be wrong, one of my mates had a se amethyst mk4 years ago and that had two front chassis legs welded on at the bulkhead and it was pretty safe or so we thought lol., im sure a qualified bodyshop specialist would know what the best course is :smile:

Hi, yeh problem here as you will not have any history for a long period, but it could of been on private plates that were mainly used on another car; or its been off the rada meaning you may never find out what the true mileage is.

i never thought of that, the pedal rubbers are as new really though? and the underneath is super clean just rust on arches and sills as per usual o well it was just a thought. Not keeping this one for too long tho anyway its just a temp one untill i can afford a shiow winner or find one that could be a show winner :smile:

HMMMM checked my car out on the mot checker site and it says that since new 06/1990 my car had its first mot in 2007!!! strange so does that mean the 21000 miles are correct although on two mots the testers have put that it has gone around the clock :sad: could i contest this with the dvla if it was off the road for over ten years ? what do ya all think? its def suspiciouse the seats and body work are tatty so perhaps it was stolen recovered and stripped of all the good bits :sad:

March 21, 2011

hi all just wondering after looking at the posted paint code list is this the right code for the bottom silver of my new 1990 cabriolet? FORD MOTOR COMPANY SILVER ASH 549 1988 1990 METALLIC

the doors and sills have surface rust and a tiny bit of welding needs doing to the lower half of a wing :sad: and it has a red front bumper :sad: also would it need grey or white primer?

forgot to say its a two tone blue and silver
