Cheers boys, i managed to keep the moonstone blue 3 door
aswell Paul but it has gone into storage with a pal for a while

She has all 8 injectors connected and around 370BHPs, which is interesting after 4000rpm!:hahaha:

very nice are kid, I was with tim harvey at donny last monday discussing the golden era of touring cars now known as boring cars.
The only car he wishes he could still own/drive was his rs500;)

Tim was telling me when they did the legendary birmingham grand prix and his rs 500 pulled 172 mph thru the speed trap and was the fastest car there on the day. Also a great story about his mechanic from that era who had to live map the rs500 while sat on the floor of the car while tim did a flying lap of the ring!!

Not generally a huge fast Ford fan myself, but love those 3-door Cossies and RS500s. That one looks great, congrats :thumbs:

Makes me wish I had room at the moment to get something '80s
