A replacement for the replacement! All intact and at on £15 I couldnt refuse. Ill use the red one as a donor for its sides which will blend onto this.

Also the answers to my wheel problems. Well, 2/3 anyway.

STILL waiting on the bits n bobs from a guy on the facebook escort owners club. Hopefully it wont be too long before he sends them  :rolleyes:

 

Just need to decide what to do tyre wise on the front. Ill get one of the 225-40's fitted and see about clearance. If still a bit close for my liking I'll go for the 35 profile.

Lol ladies ladies!  :baby:

A bit stiffer than what I have now wont bother me one bit. It wont be driven everyday and I've ALWAYS had a 'harsher' ride than standard. If it looks the bollox Then I'll be happy, regardless of the ride. Like I said, it'll be weekends only and to be fair I dont really go far on weekends so..... :D

 

 

Plus it has adjustable damping too so I can toy with that if it'll help. (not that I know ANYTHING about coilovers tbh)  :roll:

Err.....sorry but no!   ;( Ive tried and of late worked my ass off to get done as much as I have. Although I still havnt got all my screws yet ( pain in the ass) and havnt finished the front bumper Ive also run out of cash. On the day of Ford Fair my insurance is due, it needs MOT, After not driving it for 5 years I was gonna get breakdown cover ( cant be stranded that far from home) plus it'll cost £70 in fuel and I'd need two new tyres which would be between £140- £200. Its probably best part of £600+ to get it on the road and I havnt got £600 spare. I also dont want to rush it or take it up there half arsed/not as I want it.

We've also got no 2 due on 5th September so Have to keep some dosh to one side. Although I'm not far away finishing it by any means so I will crack on as much as I can but Im actually enjoying NOT having the pressure on to get finished. Good things come to those who wait so guess what you'll all have to do?! Sorry  ;(  ;(
