another winter project - zetec elan

just messing about trying to upload photos on here, this is my new project now stratos has gone…

WOW, that looks very cool!

It looks brand new!!

I am liking that a lot :smiley: can’t wait to see the rest of the build progress

yea me too, keep it coming.

It looks like you also have my kids ideal front garden!

Looks great - is that an S3 body? What sort of spec are you going for?

keep the pics coming!

Zoe saw and Elan sprint a while back in the garage filling up, shes sort of fell in love with it but as much as I owuld buy one I cant bring myself to spend all that money on an original one.
Would be interested if someone did a kit!

Fill yer boots!! http://www.spydercars.co.uk/

That Escort’s going to appear a bargain by comparison!! :wink:

Difficult to tell, but the rear arches look like they’ve got S4 flares.
There’s certainly an S4 Stromberg bonnet

Gets anorak.

It is a new S4 moulding, with all new Spyder chassis and running gear, modified ford zetec 180 bhp spec.
I bought it as you see it - an unfinished project, with quite a lot to do, I have all the parts to finish, including new Lenham hardtop on order.
I will post stages of build if people are interested, although not exige related, maybe if I make sure exige is in the photo’s somewhere!!
Planning colour scheme with paint man at the moment, looking like yellow over white sprint colours.

a few more pics…now I’ve got the swing of it!!

I have red over white. The only other original colour I really like is Pistachio.
Some of the 26R colour schemes are cool, but not so on a DHC

JonnyFox has a Dremmel if you need one! :smiley:

Getting one off Santa!!!

Lol I’m using mine you tosser :smiley:

Be bloody careful then! :smiley:
