Supercharged Beige Mk1 Ford Fiesta

Into the bodyshop

I went to the paint shop on the saturday morning and mick and mark have made a good start. they are however taking on more than i asked by painting the interior aswell. which i thought i did a half decent job out the can. but they think not. Everything is being smoothed, including the plates for the cage and the welding around the five speed kit. So far so good.

After my trip to see the prep work on the mk1 i made a good start on fixing a mates mk3 escort which needed a new front panel and cross member.

Update bodywork pictures

Here are some pics off my phone, not great quality and the car was rained on and driven down a dusty track on the way to mine but it still looks ace. there are a couple of minor things im not happy with but its going to get sorted asap

Cradle adjustment and bumper fitting

I've cut the blocks off the cradle and started bolting bits back on. also ive started running all the wiring thro again. I just had to bolt the number plate on and bumpers.

Reassembly

Little Update, fitted the servo and pedal box.

I shouldnt get any bulkhead flex with these.

Seam sealed and stonechipped the arches.

Ready to run the brake lines and fuel pipe.

Rebuilding Fiesta Mk1 rear axle

I've been sorting out the Fiesta's back axle.

Fiesta Reassembly

I still have no internet at the flat, but I managed to upload theses reassembly pics at a mates house

Front coilovers

She is back on the wheels with the coil overs on the front.

The Engine is in

A little update, Williamson came over and we threw the engine in.

I've got some issues though, with the gearbox sitting very close to the modified chassis rail at the back.
