Mr Sam Posted April 30, 2009 Author Report Posted April 30, 2009 it came with capri 4 spokes which are far to wide shes a 1.1 with 45k, needs a few bis doing but nothing major.....mainly stripping the interior and getting some more BHP from 1117cc OSF sticker and leccy ignision are allready ordered 18.7 is the target time
MightySprocket Posted April 30, 2009 Report Posted April 30, 2009 nice one sam but there never too wide my ol wheels on my brother in laws 950
SmokeEm Posted May 1, 2009 Report Posted May 1, 2009 Can't see the pic's coz I'm at work but will it make round 2?
4parajon Posted May 1, 2009 Report Posted May 1, 2009 Agree with Sprocket, I've a pic somewhere of one fitted with RS 7.5" 4 spokes, pure sex
NeilT Posted May 1, 2009 Report Posted May 1, 2009 sweet ride m8 got to agree with the others get the laser 4 spokes back on it
BIGKEV Posted May 1, 2009 Report Posted May 1, 2009 cool man - put the laser alloys on and paint them black and red - will look sweet mate
Trevmk3 Posted May 1, 2009 Report Posted May 1, 2009 nice one sam, if you do put the 4spokes back on and you want a spare then you can have the one ive got for nothing
Mr Sam Posted May 1, 2009 Author Report Posted May 1, 2009 Can't see the pic's coz I'm at work but will it make round 2? unfortunatly it clashes with the would be sister in laws b'day so im off to that... Classic Ford will be its strip debut gives me a month to get a few bits done without shelling out on more tyres for the laser wheels they arent going to fit so im gonna sell them but nick the tyres for my pepperpots
Copey Posted May 1, 2009 Report Posted May 1, 2009 awesome, glad you got it and are happy with it Sam!
bigglesmk2 Posted May 1, 2009 Report Posted May 1, 2009 Nice one The lasers do look wrong,pepper pots all the way
Mr Sam Posted May 1, 2009 Author Report Posted May 1, 2009 could a mod/admin now stick this in the readers rides section save starting a new thread, pretty pwease
Mr Sam Posted May 1, 2009 Author Report Posted May 1, 2009 its back on skinny lil steels for the moment till i can afford to go have some of the tyres taken off the 4 spokes and put on some pepperpots i have
Chris! Posted May 1, 2009 Report Posted May 1, 2009 Its only 20 to have your tyres off, then you can sell the 4 spokes to pay to have the tyres put back on
Fiesta Steve Posted May 1, 2009 Report Posted May 1, 2009 could a mod/admin now stick this in the readers rides section save starting a new thread, pretty pwease Done m8, and good to see you back in a Fez
Mr Sam Posted May 1, 2009 Author Report Posted May 1, 2009 cheers mate and hell yes it is the mk3 just isnt the same it may have nearly double the power and luxharies like power steering......but it just doesnt go BRAAAAAAAAAAAP of leave rubber on the ground in 2nd
Mr Sam Posted May 1, 2009 Author Report Posted May 1, 2009 steels now have fresh paint and chrome it did have these in it, but they werent bolted in at the back all they need is an extra hole drilling in the runners and a couple extra bolts and i will probably put them back in, same as my daily so i know there nice and comfy and hold you in well got a bucket seat ive had lying around so this afternoon i speant a few mins modding one of the spare runners an mounting it on said seat only to find there too close together DOH! so just need some angle iron from B&Q to finish that off rear seats are brown and very shabby, no dout they will be coming out soon oh and picked up a grommet and a fan belt from halfrauds, rear wiper motor coming out tomorrow oh and some L plates for the Mrs for the time being i have these been for a good drive this evning still loving every second of it!!! got a stiff back and neck though
Mr Sam Posted May 1, 2009 Author Report Posted May 1, 2009 engine wise so far all ive done is drill the airbox got the timing light out but couldnt see the notch in the crank pulley, its very lumpy on tickover so timing or points need some adjustment oh and the wafer thin rad will be replaced with an XR spec one
Guest cortinamad-gonetoo Posted May 2, 2009 Report Posted May 2, 2009 it looks very tidy sam youre well pleased arnt you
