Hey,
Ive been following the S|W blog for quite some time now, and thought it only about time i aughter sign up to the forum.
Here's my 2002 Ford FIesta ZS ive been building for the last 6 months. Ive still got an awful lot left to do before it goes back onto the road, maybe another 6-7 months? But here's how its sitting on my driveway today...but please note, its still a very unfinished project!
Thanks for looking...

Anyway, i used a few words from his write up, aswell as my own on a picture of my own to use as my Facebook Display picture, i hope this is cool?
''Cars aren’t built on the internet. Anyone can watch a 10-minute Youtube tutorial and suddenly “Know what they’re doing” but at the end of the day,the only way to learn is to get out in the garage, get your hands dirty, and do it... You can do anything if you give it a
shot and set your mind to it.Your parents weren’t lying to you. It doesn’t take much more than heart and dedication to build whatever you can come up with. Detail is paramount, but what makes a car more impressive is doing all the work yourself. Its all about eating, sleeping, and breathing motor oil. Or wheel sealant. Or paint. Or something, either way. Its all about spending paychecks on chrome-dipping engine parts instead of fresh rags, Jewls & drugs.''

Thanks, Ross.
