Hello.
I got my Fiesta 1.3 about 2 years ago. I paid £100 for it.
It required work to the arches and a respray. I got on the case and sorted the arches.
Whilst I was respraying the car, I visited a scrap yard. The yard had a Si, which still had the bumpers and interior. I bought them and had them fitted.
The only plus/minus side, is that the interior has been removed from a 3 door car, whereas my car has 5 doors. This means that you can get to the back seats from the both the front and back doors! Thats great as it means theres more room!

When I got it, the man said that the front suspesion was nackard. I am now looking on different websites and ebay for lowering springs.

One last thing, my respray is nearly done, it just needs one final coat. Whilst stripping the plastic bits off the outside, I decided to remove the side strips, I also smoothed the roof strips along with the swage line in the bonnet. I am now looking to get a smooth boot too.

hear is some pics
