Right just to let you know this will be a slow project as i want to do it right as the car hasa fair bit of centimental value. my dad has owned this car since it was 2 years old and was the fist car i was EVER in. i have always wanted it but up until now my dada has just let it sit and rot away on the drive promising himself he would restore it and put it back on the road but he has now told me i can take it away to lock up and have my way with it.

the car in question is a 1989 sierra sapphire 2000e Ghia with full leather interiour
unsure on the paint name but its 2 tone with a dark grey on the top and a silver round the bottom

it has some mods but they will be removed such as my dads awfuly choice of 15" fox 5 spoke alloys. it also had quad lights and cosworth rear light which i put on it

i will go take some pics and upload them when i get a chance
