Yeah I do need to crack on, havnt got a radiator in my new garage yet tho lol wait till it warms up then I will do loads

You are slowly getting like me Edd, too much buying and not enough doing! lol
Nice one on the plough but I think you will need to pay someone to take the side skirts off your hands:tard::p

No one could ever be as bad as you for parts Rich lol

Yep sideskirts are not that's nice tbh lol

Yeah really do need to crack on with it really, will do once I stop buying stuff :roll:

I like the side skirts... would suit our Focus beautifully lol

The power of spawny sod getting parts so cheap.

lol I will post up lots of pics in the morning :)



lol wish someone had taken a pic when I reversed off the drive and the steering wheel came off due to me not fitting the nut lol nearly had a cardiac arrest lol

Also had complaints about how loud it is from a certain neighbour ffs :roll: lol

Dude i meant to get the carpet in the post to you today, but got stuck into taking my helper spring off my coilovers to get the front lower, once i had been and got the track/toe done 3 times at ETB it was 5.30pm so i missed the post, and now im working tomorrow day/evening and Saturday, so the earliest i can sort it is Monday afternoon.

Glad she's come on well, i hope your coming to billing in it?

Scott

No worries bout the carpet

Will be at billing, probably just on one day tho

lol im a bit nervous bout driving it now lol

Hope everything goes well with the MOT. Looking forward to seeing some more pics. Might actually get my ass to billing to have a look in person!

Just take it for a gently drive, for a few miles then give it a kicking. You know you can fix it so...

Redline it out the MOT station. Itll be alright!

some pics of whats been happening then

finished the engine bay off, not much to do here just setting up the throttle linkage and other small jobs

Edd

Looks amazing mate , great job !

It looks fantastic Edd, the splitter looks spot on and a refreshing change that isn't the tatty snowplough lol

Only thing I'd change would be to have a brown roll cage but that's me being pedantic :d

:cool::cool::cool::cool::cool::cool::cool::cool::c ool:

wont it fail the m.o.t with rear seats and a cage??

Finally it's there Edd. A long time coming.

I'd expect an just advisory from a sympathetic testing station tbh.

Looks well cool Edd, good luck with the MOT.

Thanks very much for the comments

Think my mate will pass the cage tbh

Well its made it 1 mile lol to the tyre place

http://i499.photobucket.com/albums/r...5-25151454.jpg

bent m.o.t ftw lol

Just take the back seats out, not bent then :p

It failed :(

Dip switch wouldn't work, but did on the way home

Wiper linkage fell off the motor lol

I forgot to put the seatbelt clip on the passenger seat, mega lol

I need to take the drivers sunvisor off as it fouls the cage


Few things to sort over the weekend as retest is monday, tbh I quite happy its minor things and retest is nowt

Tracking was miles out, I went the long way home and it feels sweet to drive :d

Edd

Nearly there Edd:thumb:

Looking forward to seeing it soon;)

Yep nearly there mate

It has teased me a bit tho, as I really really need to give it a blast on the A39 to Minehead lol

Is the dip switch getting stuck on the steering column shroud? (had that a few times!)

Car looks great by the way!

Bad luck on the fail, but it's all small stuff tho..

This looks stunning!
