Are you still retaining the standard driveshafts for the ERST gearbag ?

Car should look : when finiished

its nearly there just got 2 put panels back n where the heater fan is as one plug wasn't put back on properly then onces that done its get a cat 1 toad ai606 alarm fitted then its off to the bodyshop

[fiestasiphil]

i have another update here on my si rebuild project

dvd player is now fitted



really pleased with it sounds pretty good altho i need to set up both of the amps again to get to te music sounding right


also i took the rear bumper off and replaced it with another si bumper which seemed to fit better and i also checked the rear valance for rust and it was pretty good just with a few tiny bits of rust...so not bad



then fitted the standard rear lights ...as in the bodyshop the car is to be MOT'D so had to make it legal to pass , clears will be going back on once its back on the road in 5 weeks time



then on wednesday the car was to be taken away to the bodyshop for a respray but the car is too low to go on their lowloader so it was trade plated away and i follwed in the mk2 and took a few pics as the car hasn't properly been driven since the 2.0 was put in a few months back













the pursuer



5 weeks to go until the si is back on the road and the mk2 can rest in the garage

[fiestasiphil]

i finally have some pics of my si while in the bodyshop





interior shot as i haven't shown a pic of the ford focus steering wheel badge thanks to mouse for that

looks a nice clean example mate.ditch the tints though dont suit the car at all

[Si_2000]

would have got rid off the rear wiper, who needs to be able to see out of the back . a bit of light smoke on the fronts will sort the tints out aswell, otherwise the car looks pretty damn good. im re-spraying mine black in a few weeks, its my first full windows out re-spray and in bricking it, ive painted a lot of bumpers and colour coded alot on other peoples cars but im a bit nervous bout the whole car, and in black!! cant wait to see the car all done tho. is it out of the body shop yet?

[fiestasiphil]

[fiestasiphil]

went out for a drive and took some new pics

also re fitted my clear rear lights, didn't want to leave them in the garage as they cost me £135 brand new 4 years ago, so would b a shame to leave them off the car

















but i'm going to have to take the car back to the bodyshop at some point to get the doors re alighned as i'm not happy with that

it sure is great 2 be able to drive it again

[HCS PIMP]

[fiestasiphil]

your right frotn indicator does line up properly when did the wing get attached obviously got a lil rushed

was never rushed, front headlights are pattern items and stick out a bit that side is worse but the car did have had a front ender over 3 years ago , prob didn't help

[HCS PIMP]

okies mate wasn't a criticism

[MENACE]

car looks spot on now mate well done top job
