cheers for the replies

im unsure of the 'retro' strip running down the sides of the car, think it looks too much?

also thinking of losing the front splitter and rear spoiler for a more understated look.

any thoughts?

think im gonna stick with the 1.4i for a while and get a new exhaust and cam. can always fit the cam to an RST engine one day

heres some old photos of the car in different stages...









cheers!

its developed nicely over time mate, love it

Right, after a change of heart I'm not happy with the car.

Partly because its not as low or as cool as my vision had been at the start and ive crashed it twice this week because of the weather so ive lost my mojo with it. don't worry its only minor cosmetic and can be fixed.


Its either gonna change or make way for an escort...

If I keep it plans will include:

7" Deep dish white cortina rims with chrome hubcaps
(or standard size 5" ones tucked under the arches)
Coilovers
No spoilers.
No stickers.
80's style side decal.

Watch this space.

Keep it mate, its a really nice example and with that list of things done it will be awesome!

Keep the spoiler, I like the last pic, those blue strips look cool.

I agree the blue strips all round look good

Cool, get pics up asap then bump for Chris lol

no pics for a couple of weeks at least. need to refurbish my wheels, fit everything and push the exhaust up so it doesnt scrape on the floor..

Brilliant news mate, keep us updated
