My All Blue

She goes out all year really as long as it's dry. I do have limited mileage insurance, 1500 miles a year. When I take it out during the winter months I leave the roof up as it has it's the original roof and I would be gutted if it cracked. I have never been able to find a cover in this colour which I think was only fitted to the All Blue, if anyone knows of one please let me know. I am spending a few bob on her this year, having the underneath stripped and re-undersealed, the wheels chemically stripped and powdercoated and the rear bodykit arches resprayed, the laquer has a few bubbles in it. She will then have a deep polish. None of this really needs doing but it should keep her looking great for another 22 yrs.

I,ve had two blue roofs fitted in the past by tophoods in london, the guy does a great job but the all blue roof is'nt blue. It should be almost the colour of the seats, sort of greyish blue. I will keep the original roof until I can find the correct one or this one starts to tear and leak.

Thanks,

These cars never had a rear spolier as standard and they wern't on the factory fit options list either.

 

Your spoiler could have been fitted by the dealer after delivery new (purchased via the Ford accessories catolouge and fitted and painted by the dealer) or a previous owner had it fitted.
