Well thought i would post the crappy pics i have of my car. and start a project thread. Its a Ford Sierra GLS 2.9 V6 1990
Have very little history but it is one of 14 2.9's with a sprintex supercharger built by power engineering.
It had been stored in a barn for 6 years before i bought it. so its in need of tlc
having problems removing heat from the engine bay atm so am on the hunt for a cos bonnet and grill. me and dad are still trying to decide what direction to take, strip and track prep it or get up2 top class condition and use it soley on roads which we will feel is a waste.

Me and my dad had a meeting tday and have settled on a plan.
Get it running right ( we fixed the fan problem today a nifty bit of re wiring). Source a cosworth leather interior (found one), me work my valetng magic and use it for the summer.
then next winter engine out, sheel off to my dads mates for resto, may change colour ( i want magenta ), re build on the engine and charger, then re fit for show season
