I like it mate, bumpers are fairly subtle and the arches would look mint with some decent dished wheels....maybe even cossie ones? tiny bit like mouse's car |

I think you'd need to do a bit more work to make that look right, like smooth out the door handles, get rid of roof water runners, and just give the car a smoother look. Otherwise it all looks way too fiddly for my liking. And of course you'd need a Cossie 4wd conversion to give it the performance! I don't see the point of having a car look like that and having no power to match it

I think it would look really good mate! I'd say it would probably just need a bit more shaping under the rear windows to make it look right, rather than just coming straight out.

well so far my plans are for a wide arch light weight shell, mid mounted duratec V6 in full noble m12 spec and not much else, im currently looking into new gearbox options, altho the noble uses the mondeo gearbox, abeit with some work done. im currently looking into wheels, im stuck on whether to go for 18" escos style wheels or comps, im planning to fit massive brakes so im going to massive wheels, and seeing as the fronts are going to have to use 4" spacers i think i have enough clearence. its going to be a demonstrator for a small motorsport garage im planning on starting, its always been my dream to own a motorsport business, and i have now found premises, equipment and finance to start the business, as some experienced people that are going to help i think im ready to start up. and seeing as i started to learn all things car on fiestas it seemed fitting to start my new business with a humble fiesta. |

Sounds a good plan Why not try to fit different rear axel and front set up so you arent using massive spacers? RWD / 4WD it

i was looking at fitting 2 mondeo front subframes from V6 models, to sets of 276mm brakes, 2 2.5 v6 engines, 2 sets of powered wheels, but 2million times the amount of work. i have to find a good shell to start on first them i can really start thinking about engines properly. |
