Love it, looks very smart. People go all out on track cars and they can just look horrid inside but you have made it look neat and tidy and quite comfortable

Thanks Chris. I take a bit of pride in how the car looks, I like it looking fresh and clean, and the inside was letting the appearance of the car down a little, so time for a good tidy up, make it neater

very nice

Great work on the carbon fibre film, looks really good.

I understand what chris is saying, most would just leave it as bare metal sheets.

Now that Im keeping the car and maechanically its pretty much finished , it wouldnt do no harm tidying it up inside, after all the paintwork it had,

carried on making the drivers side footplate this afternoon, made out of aluminium sheeting 1.5mm thick, and covered in carbon film with gripper tape applied over that where my heels will be whilst on the pedals







Im getting there now, ill go back into the garge and start the passenger foot well plate now, but wont finish it as its pretty cold up here now

Awesome! Another great tidy feature, I know they serve a purpose but those metal footplates don't do anything for me, they make it look all over the place along with all the other bits track cars normally have.

It will be one sweeeet interior once you do the finishing touches!

fair play mate that is looking brilliant in side!

good work

just when i thought i was doing well, and getting somewhere, I crashed my mondeo tonite, ran into the back of a jeep just as I came out of work, totally gutted.I love my mondeo, aint too bad, bumper, headlight, bonnet and grill, phoned the insurance company tonite ,and will get it booked in to get repaired soon as

Ive got full no claims bonus , and protected too, so just the excess to cover , but hey ho could have been a lot worse

Thats a shame mate Hope it gets sorted.

Those mondeos are actually one of my favourite fords, especially in estate form! I walk past a blue one everytime I go to my garage to get my car out and I am always tempted to leave a note on the windscreen saying 'How much would you sell this for?' lol
