Paradox,
dash board was taken off and inspected by the bodyshop. There was nothing there.
I had them check when it was first mentioned.

I cant believe it was July when i last got pics of my car. Oh well, i popped by and the boys have been busy ..... in fact there is new paint on!
The new front end, gives clues to painting....
The engine bay has been painted .... (sorry for fuzzy pic)
The brand new inner wings are shiney .....
The new inner arches looking great to .....
Inside the new floor has been painted and given some sound deadening..
The old bodykit is fitting fine ....
Goodbye to that nasty rusty bit above the windscreen .....
The shell should be ready and hopefully being sprayed next week. Then its all the other bits, doors, bonnet, bodykit .... etc. I should have a restored shell by new year, maybe ..... just maybe before Xmas

I want you to have it sprayed matt black now! Looks good! Shows off the nice lines of the Mk3 as well I think *embarassed* It's going to look utterly pristine when they're done though

I can't wait to see the finished result
I'd love a fresh red one, or even a pinky faded red, just aslong as it's rust free

Every time I come back here you seem to put an update for me,
Fantastic to see it coming along. One question though, are going to use it as the daily driver again once it's all been done?

Glad you put the at the end. This car will be a fine weather car only, but it will be driven and will NOT be entered into concourse as it will be modified

After 14 Scottish winters it's about time it had a break!
When are you expecting the restoration to be finished? And what happened to the 150k T2?!
Hoping to come back to Fiesta ownership early next year myself. Selling the C2, getting a cheapish diesel for the weekly commute and will be looking for a 2i for some weekend fun. Will need to come up to Abz to see the RS in the flesh once it's all done!
