BLIZZO Posted March 25, 2015 Author Share Posted March 25, 2015 Body looks too far gone to me. This was my first thought, but after a good poke an inspection its rust in weird places, yea the pillars have a few small holes coming through but the floor, chassis, everything from A pillars forward is mint, rear quarter and sills are completley buggered, but sills can be purchased at 150 a pop and rear quarters can be cut from another car. The roof is mint. Time will tell anyway, im preparing for the worst when i start stripping it. We will see.... 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kyteler Posted March 25, 2015 Share Posted March 25, 2015 Looks like is rusted in all the same places my one did. Weird ass places where you're all.. SAY WHAAAAAAAAAAA? I reckon pull that bitch apart and see what's up under seals and behind panels. Probably still worth working on. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kyteler Posted March 25, 2015 Share Posted March 25, 2015 How well has your crossflow gone there, Shane? Lewl/bitharshsorry. If you insist on staying blue oval, what about one of those tiny capacity turbo ecoboost motors? 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BLIZZO Posted March 25, 2015 Author Share Posted March 25, 2015 this car doesn't come with a motor, there is currently a block in it with no head, the heater cowel runner was removed which filled the back two notes with water for the last 6-7 years. Like many others the reason I like the idea of a zetec is cos it's the same configuration as a BDA, and look cool with side suckers, and those retro ford BDA cam covers for the zetec, hhhhmmmphhhhhhhhhh Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
