Hey fokes after buying JIM i was giving him a once over for his mot and the more i dug the more I found and not in a good way. I know rust is natures way of saving weight but JIm is taking the piss. so i'm going to stick some pics his road to recovery.

this what I've had to cut out the drivers side



I've already started doing a bit of welding


I Also didn't like his wheels but Instead of buying new ones i went for painting Them
From this


to this



Let me know what you think.

Holy Mackeral!!!! Good luck to ya mate, keep the pics coming. Wheels arent to my taste as im just a boring bufty, but each to their own.

[goldengraeme]

yeah wheels not to my taste but they have new tyres so i'm just trying to mack the best out a bad bunch (Plus I'm skint and can't aford new ones )
Yeah I'll keep the pics coming a lot more work to be done

[fiestarsturboblack]

Wow sum work gettin done there mate. Hope u get her sorted. Keep the pics cumin

[~Tony~]

Thats a fair sized hole you have there, not a huge fan of the wheels but they are a lot better now than they were, good job, even a little bit of paint can make some crap wheels look good

[jonyb4]

WOW thats a big hole :/

great job tackling it!!

those wheels went from ugly to stunning with just some paint, brilliant!

[Michael!]

fcuking hole that wasnt it!

good luck with the rest

[- Danny Boy -]

Good luck with the project!

I would have put some fillter in the momocorse logos on the wheels, would have looked even smarter than they do now

[fezzRS]

marv would of said wow what a hole

[goldengraeme]

aye its a some hole but I'll get it fixed then I've the same to do on the other side but just not quite as big. I do love the challenge of a big hole

[fezzRS]

glad your saving her bud there getting rare now these rs turbos keep the pics flooding

Is it just me or has it happened to anyone else. Been working on the FRST for a few months now and I've hit the wall. It just seems to be never ending. The more I fix the more stuff I find that needs fixed. :0(

Any one got any tips on how to push on its almost starting to get me down :0( I just want my wee car on the road but no motivation to finish it.

Think I need a kick up the arse
HELP!

I Found this with my 2i had it for a few years now and still not got it on the road yet Still loads to do but id rather do it all than skimp on the job and have to do it all again a few months after it being on the road

Also I agree that the wheels went from horrible to nice just with a lick of paint. Got any more pics to upload of progress?

[goldengraeme]

Yeah got some more I'll get them up. Just feels like a long road

[fezzRS]

keep going mate if you feel down jsut have a break from it refresh then go back to it keep it up m8

[goldengraeme]

Well work is slow on the FRST but its moving along got some new pics of the progress :0)

The aim is on the road for march next year should be doable.

[fezzRS]

whats happening with it mate

[sam-si]

wheels look good fella i've got the same ones on my fiesta! your doing well got much left to do?

[goldengraeme]

Hey guys the RS has been put on hold over Christmas but I'll be back at it on Saturday.
Just got the passenger side to weld up then wax oil the lot, new fuel lines and new hand break cable then just get it put back together. Need to get it all done as I want it at the rolling road day I'm organising. I'll get some more pictures soon
