Then i knew i need to buy some reliable daily to keep for longer period.

Got this from friends stepdad. its been his for over 10years.



Dirtiest car i've had by far!




got this weird wheel for 20 euros, i **** these original merc wheels


After few hours of washing and cleaning.



Bought new 195/45 tyres for shooters and threw them on. Used 5x114,3 to 5x120,6 adapters . Just machined centre bore to fit and boltholes.


At work



Waiting for wheel centrecaps back from welding and someone to offer me side moldings.
Then some polish and benz is ready




And that's it for now

So, i sold sierra, but needed something cheap as daily/winterwreck.
Found an Ford Scorpio 2.0 100kw. with electric seats and other comfy things for 300euros

I already painted grill, and everything i could black on these pics.





First i welded the diff and then had some fun.

After a month drifting in snow



That happened alot



AAnd then i rolled it 3 times over the roof with 5 people in car. Luckily everyone was okay.





After pulling and beating


Radiator, and few other parts needed to change


then i found a toyota avensis front bumper from friends garage trash


DOWNFORCE



Like new! Somehow this side didnt touch the round at all. No dents whatsoever


wannabe


After a while electronics were so ad i could get the car running anymore. so i sold it

[Tanel]

So, head gasket vent long time ago.
Friend painted new front fender and light cover. (car is dirty and needs polishing in that pic, colour is actually spot on)


Didnt have time, money and motivation to repair it for some time so car sat like this in the winter.





But then, some parts arrived


Took some parts off


Lunch at 5.am

Headwork done


Cometic headgasket

All lights on dash on, but it rides!!

Bad: head gasket went..
Good: 10inch in every corner

lil' tease

[Tanel]

Had some spare time and an idea.

started with this.


Took it apart.



Lighter used to be there


handsaw



fitted.



Did'nt like the silver, so i grabbed a stonechip spray to give it a oem plastic look.
I know there's a specific spray for that plastic look, but i had the stonechip one in garage


also sprayed the ugly chrome molding and fitted a temporary leather for shifter.

before


after


To do:
roof liner and visors black
custom shifter leather
custom floor mats
