I love these things. 900 wheels look pretty good on there actually.

[Stolzy]

idk...nevr seen dat before

[awestun]

those things are bad ass.

[schroedin]

That shit is crazy different... I love it.

[loneStar22]

where did u find that thing?!? havent seen one since my uncle had one when i was like 3? im guessing your going custom? i doubt theres even OEM parts for that car

[turboxr]

This is actually #6. They're like pringles...once you pop....


The only one that wasn't modified was a 68k original mile 88 I owned. It's actually for sale by the current owner with 75k miles for $1800. Some OEM parts (ie drivetrain) are still available, but many parts are NLA. There are a couple of sources for NOS parts if you want to get really original.

that would look sick stanced

[e36rjbmw]

Sorry man, but some cars are not meant to be stanced that thing is just ugly. Just because you're lowering does not mean it's stanced, but by all means prove me wrong.

[WhiteStripes]

Holy shit, I haven't seen one of those in years. Stoked to see what you do with this.

I even don't know there were "sierra" in USA.
There are a lot of them here, not really on the road but in the scrapyards.
Will be curious to see it a bit modified!

This is the "Stanced Showroom", lol, this either belongs in Intro section or Build section.

Always thought those cars were interesting, never seen one look good, hope to see good progress.

[Estonian]

Ford Sierra... yuk. If you need parts, look from Europe, there's tons of this stuff lying around being dead here.

[turboxr]

Mods feel free to move it over to the build section.

I think, maybe some of you guys get a little hung up on some ambiguous terms, like "stanced." What the crap does it matter? It's Euro, it's going to be low, it's fast, it's quirky. That's all that matters. Sometimes we get a little carried away here on teh inturwebz. All said, thanks for the kind words, and the unkind ones: I'm used to it, I drive a Merkur. LOL
