gaz adjustable coil-overs all round[:x)]
rear turrets/five link rear end[:p]
alloy firewall kit
falcon five stud conversion with shortened zl failane lsd

fishnet racaros/rs dash etc....
2008 ford focus duratec 2.0l
lowered world cup crossmember/quick rack

adjustable tca's/strut tops

the underside has already been stripped and painted with POR15 and POR15 white top coat

    Hi Ben.

    You have a good selection of parts ready to go in [:u]

    Those pics are from 2003 - how is it progressing now?

    Keep up the good work and updates

    Hi Paul,
    no i think the date on the camera wasn't set properly[xo]
    i've only had the car for nearly 2 years-i primed the shell in april this year-i was going to paint the car in the next month or so but have just stumbled across a lovely 2 door shell already in primer which i'm going to paint shortly and make a mexico replica out of it and use as a bit of a daily drive.
    Have been gathering duratec parts over the last few months

    Hi Nigel,
    yes very fortunate to stumble across those lovely recaros from the UK-many thanks to Mr Mark Cogan (2quick4u).

    Cheers
