ianxr3i Posted February 3, 2010 Share Posted February 3, 2010 I thought I had better show my new project. Its had 1 previous owner & has got 90,000 miles on the clock. It is quite a tidy motor thats needs a little TLC to get it back to its prime. It doesn't need alot of work for the MOT, just the outer sills both sides. The wheels are original & I got a all the history, I even got the original bill of sale Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ianxr3i Posted February 4, 2010 Author Share Posted February 4, 2010 It has got 90,267 miles on the clock & I have ford service history up to 87,649miles. The engine runs sweet, no tappet noises & the gear linkage is still tight. Which is a big bonus. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ianxr3i Posted March 7, 2010 Author Share Posted March 7, 2010 Well its time for an update. Â I have replaced both outer sills (offside & nearside), replaced the front & rear bumpers which I painted black then a couple of coats of clear lacquer, changed the oil stem seals (just for peace of mind), I then the polish out with a big tub of elbow grease & got polishing. I was very happy with the results. Hope you like the updated pic's. Â Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
