wow m8t wat ya doing to it rebuilding the front end 8)

Had a bit of a shunt, nowt serious, but still managed to re-arrange part of the front of the car, mainly underneath, couldn't see any of the damage without looking under the bonnet or by looking at the front wheel/ tyre lol (pics of that still to come)

 

So had to strip the front, new radiator and a bit of re-shaping and welding lol!

 

Now it's up and running again, just gotta sort out a blow in the exhaust, will probably mean a new downpipe

somebody finally managed to do it :O youve killed a ford :O :P :D

what you up to in the pic m8y?

It'll take a helluva lot more to kill that car Jay :P (hoping that ain't just put the kiss of death on it)

 

That'll be the only bad thing about letting go of that car when I get a new one, I know it's always run like a dream. 60,300 miles ain't much for the Zetec, but even considering that, I still runs like new. gets a few rattles appear now and then, but its only ever stupid little things like heat shield etc. It's had the usual ICV problems etc.

 

Really good considering the previous owners left it standing for the best part of 12 months, then just spent £20 on it to fly thru the MOT, never failed to start no matter how long it's been left without use.

 

Only thing that has suffered is the bodywork :(

 

Last owner had a bit of a prang, and that's gone rusty, but easily cured, then just a bit of rust in the regular places on the rear arches, tiny bits on the tailgate. Once that's all sorted, It'll be up for sale, hopefully the end of this year. It's taxed 'till the end of December, so don't wanna be putting any more on this one. It'll make a crackin' wee motor for someone, and I hope me next 'Scort will be as reliable as that one cos then i'm a gonna have me some fun! :D 8)
