i bought this fiesta 1.1 quartz 1995 for £400 only 50k on the clock.

this is how it looks at the moment:









the plan is to make an xr2i replica, starting with the bodywork.

so far i have:

a set of xr2i alloy wheels (pics soon)

xr2i sideskirts, arches and jacking point covers. (pics soon)

xr2i spoiler (pics soon)

xr2i rear bumper (thanks goes to ben101 for giving it to me)

i need:

a front bumper with or without foglights (preferably with).

lowering springs preferably 35mm

if you have any of the above dont hesitate to let me know im willing to travel if the price is right

what im going to do:

im going to keep the car red but get rid of any rust and repaint it the same colour

im going to refurbish all the body parts and wheels, paint them the same colour as the car and attach them all up.

thnaks for looking....keep watching this thread for progress.


UPDATE: the car is now being stripped down e.t.c and work has begun

here is a picture of the car with the rear bumper on (couldt resist sticking it on and seeing what it looks like )

Welcome

Quite a nice base to start with, Arches look clean

First to go must be the mudflaps

[spitfire12]

arches arent bad no! im gonna get rid of all rust before i do anything anyway.

im only a front bumper away now!

[GTM]

I can't wait to see it when YOUV repaired all that rust Do you want to do my Capri for me as well?

Looking good man, lets have some more pictures.

[spitfire12]

update

[Dave G fsi]

Whats the update?

[spitfire12]

the last picture, work has FINALLY begun on the car

[Dave G fsi]

Cool, looking really good mate!

If you put the update as a new post rather than editing the original post its much easier to follow.

[spitfire12]

yeah i might post a new one soon, i discovered a lot fo rust on the passenger side front wing the other day
so a a new front wing is in order now!

still after a front bumper and lowering springs if anyones selling?

[Dave G fsi]

Sounds good mate, good to hear your keeping ontop of the rust!

[JamesThompson]

I've done the same as you mate (replica). Started with a 1.1, added the kit, complete respray, mondeo wheels. ive been looking at getting xr2i wheels as well, but not sure yet. Need to see what mine is like once it's been lowered first. Trying to find a good price for springs and a spoiler atm!

[spitfire12]

nice to hear im not the only one doing this
you might as well ge tthe wheels, if you look hard enough you can get them really cheap, mine where £25 with good tyres.
you can get a set of springs off ebay for about £60, well worht the investment....no point in making your car look like an xr2i but being to high off the ground.
im bidding on some recaro seats on ebay...hope i win them

by the time this cars back on the road i intened there to be no rust at all on it

[JamesThompson]

yea the wheels don't seem too expensive tbh . gotta wait till my bday before i can get the springs though (only 2 months now )
yea i had a bit rust too , along the door sills and arches (quickly sorted by my dad haha:)). i've been looking at getting the recaro interior, but not on my list of priorities atm! spoiler and lowering first! should have an exhaust sorted out, but not 100% yet .

How much did u get your spoiler for mate?
