Any pictures of the gauge holder and gauges?

[heeman10]

Here's a pic of the central gauge pod, including my ACT gauge and an old boost gauge from five years ago.

James, does the car still have the twin boot struts? I would like them

One of the first things to be collected I'm afraid dude. You can have a heater control knob instead if you like?

[~nomad~]

f**k off.

[~nomad~]

on a less abusive note, how did you do it? just another fiesta strut and fixings?

[heeman10]

Some Fiestas had two weak struts, some had one strong one. I fitted two strong ones. They clip on just the same as the weak ones, so an illiterate mouth-breather like yourself should be just fine with the challenge.

[heeman10]

No no no no no, no no no no, no no no.

[my-first-rst]

[~nomad~]

No no no no no, no no no no, no no no.


Yes.

[enterthelights]

[heeman10]

my-first-rst - I'm afraid the ACT gauge is now spoken for.

enterthelights - The intercooler is now off, I haven't taken any pics though. It's the same one featured in all the pics of my car since 2005 The engine and gearbox are still in the car at the moment.

Front bumper
Arches and skirts
Radiator
Fans
Intercooler
Wheels
Front and rear brakes
Coilovers
Lower arms
Driveshafts
Rear beam
Wing mirrors
Rear windows

After all the trouble and me turning people away as they stood with cash in hand in front of me, wanting the lower arms, he's now pulled out so someone else is having the lower arms

[sikora]

I'll be willing to take up someone on their offer of postage if they can pick bits up for me. Interested in the mk3.5 wing mirrors. James whats the condition of the paint on them? That price include the interior plates too?

ah well at least you kept to your word mate

To be honest, I could've done a better job of the prepping for the paint. I did them many years ago and didn't sand out the contours as well as I couldve done (they come all dimpled from Ford). They've had a few minor stone chips etc over the years as well (around 2003 I think I fitted them), so if I were keeping the car and turning it out as I'd love to have done, I would've re-done the mirrors. It probably cost me about £8 in sand paper and paint at the time though, so hardly a major project to redo them And yes, I'm including the interior plates for that price.

[sikora]

Ah, i was under the impression they where professionally done. They looked nicely done in your pics.

I would hope that anyone selling mint, professionally-sprayed wing mirrors complete with base plates, would be asking a lot more than £30! It'd only take an hour or two of your time and a few quid in supplies to have them lovely and shiny...all part of modifying our cars. It's no fun buying everything ready to go

[sikora]

Was hoping it was FT.com discount If i've got to spray them i might as well save myself the hassle paying someone else to pick them up and meet up/post them and just get some from a scrappy

[heeman10]

Thread updated with parts sold.

[RS rob]

thanks for yesterday james, even if it was all a bit last minute

[heeman10]

Rob - No problemo, I aim to please!

enterthelights - Okay matey. I am now running a policy of whoever pays the money gets the parts, since I've already been messed about a few times. I'll be splitting the engine and gearbox some time this week so will whip the clutch assembly off at the same time.

[enterthelights]
