by **MAD_Adamski** on Wed Apr 13, 2005 12:04 am

been a bit busy today got the doors to shut properly and had to reallt fiddle to get the handle in the drivers to fit but we got there!!!

it is not a simple conversion we had to modify the kit itself!!!!

anyway got that done got the boot to finally shut!!!! :lol:

the driver window is in but just gotta keep the window down just for a bit to check the handle is perfect other wise i'd have to break a window to get in the car :rolleyes:

....

got a few other little bits done the things you totally forget about like the horn back in and wired the window wipers up just the fiddly bits really, just need a visit to a scrappy to get a few more bits here and there and some clips,
had a moan at jamie too as i want my skirts and that painted they just sitting in the corner begging to go on :devil:

anyway the pics...............

thats all folks

by **Ghost** on Wed Apr 13, 2005 12:13 am

by **Jur** on Wed Apr 13, 2005 6:35 am

Looking good Adam

You gonna be painting the dash black to match the door cards? also, really think you should've gone for a black carpet

Can't wait to see the finished results

PaulFRST :Looking good Adam

cheers paul the dash is actually black and is deep black but its so damn dusty looks grey i dont see the point in cleaning it till all the holes are blocked ie the wing mirror holes and stuff as the dust gets everywhere!!! :rolleyes:

so when i got the restr of the bits on i'll clean it all up :wink:

as for the carpet wanted to keep it RS one i think it would be a bit too much black and make the car look dull inside i can always change my mind :wink:

i'd only have to remove the 2 seats and the centre console to change it again :aviator:

should get things moving on soon if my mate pulls his finger out :lol:

DJ Xenon :quite a few big projects going on on this site... is this just because mk3s are getting on a bit or what???

Yep - pretty much! Most FRST shells are in need of a clean up nowadays especially if you want more power. Alot of people use this time to customise the bodywork or merely update it so that's why I guess you're seeing so many now.

Bit of a cult market really

Cheers,

Andy

by **MAD_Adamski** on Thu Apr 14, 2005 2:59 pm

the engine will be made to my spec by using a number of people and contacts and a well known engine builder... and we will be looking at a very good power figure :wink:

cheers Ad

by **SPo0n** on Thu Apr 14, 2005 5:18 pm

you must be loaded to have a frst like that and a 'runabout' that's a vr6!

by **Gregory** on Thu Apr 14, 2005 5:43 pm

I guess the door cards are from a mark five. did you get them brand new from fords? if so were they pricey?

by **MAD_Adamski** on Fri Apr 15, 2005 1:45 am

the vr6 is casue i always wanted one i'm living the dream :wink:

its a great car fast reliable but its not got that sproting edge the rs has...

therefore it will be for sale in 12 months time and be replaced by a escort cossie :aviator:

....

the mk5 cards are just frm a mk5 and i just got them retrimmed or rather bought them like this and just fiddled with them a bit... but they cost me a bit but i bought the whole interior so cant really put a price on 1 thing can you :wink:
