My new Cab

brings back memories, like you say, memories from some of our youths.

Top car, I often think of getting a escort Mk2, mexico, or rs, they were such top cars back then.

Hello spotlights

Recaros were Ebay and needed bases as they had all collapsed, Ebay again and 1/2 hour to fit, also covered in grease as they look like they have been sitting in someones garage for a while, Recaro recommend Woolite to clean and boy what a job it did, they are still wet so they look darker and patchy.

Spotlights, well there are two types, Ford ones which are cheap and Carrello 640's which are like Hens teeth to find, I had to buy three sets to make one decent set and they light up a treat, brackets are the same, fortune on Ebay and was looking at rusty sets for £30 whan a brand new set with the Ford part number turned up for £50, cheeky bid at £40 inc postage and they are mine :)

Also changed the rear bench as the old one had fag burns, the seats match the door cards so no messing around.

Bought leather cover for the hood as well so no more looking like a pram is laid on the back.

Future plans, maybe change the speaker pods for standard as the have been chopped about and maybe see if there are any new headlights about as these are corroded on the rear.
 
I know of a 350bhp RS Turbo cab (purple flip paint, morretti quads and turbine style alloys) in desperate need of burning stealing a new home...;)
