Hi all i'm new to the board and i thought i'd show ya my cab, it aint been on the road 4 years, i started a zetec turbo conv then met my now wife, brought a house that needed alot of work started a building company with my grandad, etc so its taken a while but its running again fingers crossed it'll be done for ford fair.

 

Here are some pics i took with my phone so theyre not the greatest and it hadnt been cleaned for a while lol.

Thanks for you comments, ive had it nearly 10 years now it went from a standard 1.6i, to 1.6 cvh turbo then i went 2.1 zvh dyno'd at engine advantages at 240 bhp about 6 years ago then i had it restored about 5 years ago but while it was in the body shop someone offered me a zetec head, frst ofab ecu, wiring loom etc so decided to go the full hog so when i got it back i pulled it apart and started to rebuild it lol, house and stuff got in the way a bit but ive got the bug again since i got my hands on a mk3 3i with a turbo conv which ive now turned into a rs 16i rep, trouble is i keep spending time putting the bodges right on that and could have been playing with the cab lol

Glad you all like, ive got the bug again so will be more updates soon lol, though they'll all be for the 16i rep at the mo theres a few things i aint quite happy with but should be able to find time to make progress with the cab inbetween, glad summers coming so i can start spending me evenings out there too :steeringwheel:
