XC351 Posted January 31, 2010 Report Posted January 31, 2010 Nice car mate. I just love the old MKI's. You don't see many of them about. There used to be a very tidt red one around Derbyshire. We never got the Granada over here in Australia but the South Africans did and they dropped in a 302 V8 and made the Peranah. There was one for sale a while ago in Sheffield I think. When I was living overe there (UK) I was looking for a good MKI to modify. Glad I didn't as they look just right standard. By the way I'd leave it as it is it looks great. Wayne
mk1 fiesta v8 Posted January 31, 2010 Report Posted January 31, 2010 loverly car m8, personally i,d keep it original it,s not until you park it next to one at a meet thats been modified that you,ll realise how unique it is and how good it looks,

mk1fez Posted January 9, 2011 Author Report Posted January 9, 2011 Found some more pictures from a LONG time ago! And finally, one of the truck and the coupé, both now sold.
grifterkid Posted January 9, 2011 Report Posted January 9, 2011 Bloody lovely Granada you have there sir... Is the green vinyl roof (and FORD panel) original...? What became of the Miami Blue coupe...?! A good friend of mine had one exactly the same about 6-7 years ago...
mk1fez Posted January 9, 2011 Author Report Posted January 9, 2011 the coupé got sold for spares, and scrapped i believe, she was completely rotten! the roof and rear panel were done by a friend of mine and my grandads. cheers for the compliment!
DUBSCORT Posted January 22, 2011 Report Posted January 22, 2011 Thats a real gem of a car you have there young man, best of luck with it
