A much-needed steering upgrade had Neil smiling from ear to ear last November – let’s go back a few months and find out why.
By last October, the FRST started to look like a car again! It’s is in paint, it’s on wheels and it moves under its own steam. Almost… Neil explains.
We journey back to October last year, where the Focarse has been rescued from a fiery death, but it’s still not quite right…
We go back to October 2011 for this update, when Neil was tearing up Fight Club and Ford Fair in the Mk1.
Last time, Neil had a belt failure which meant the Mk1 was briefly out of action.
Last time, Neil pulled in a lot of favours with mates and thought that if he killed himself, he could have just about had it ready in time for Gatebil…
Last update (307) you may recall another one of Neil’s wacky late-night car prep sessions was underway…
Neil‘s upped his ‘car tramping’ game with even more all-nighters down at SRMC and M&J Motors where the car is being rebuilt and painted up.
If you read Neil‘s fat-bottomed Focus column last time, you’ll know he fitted coilovers to the Focarse.
Neil doesn’t know if he is the shining example of dedication or if he needs sectioning in a funny farm. However, we know.
At the time of this update, Neil was having a busy month…
This update is a packed one because the pressure’s on, but Neil‘s still found time to leisurely leaf through the parts catalogues…
Neil’s poor old Focus is basically being used as a Transit van at the moment.
Neil finally realises that running big power and standard brakes is silly and a big no-no.
Neil doesn’t need to be asked twice to show off in his Mk1. Here he is at Fast Ford‘s Fight Club…
Neil‘s been down to Jamsport again this month, doing what donkey work he can to prep the shell while the lads crack out the welder once more.
Cards on the table – Neil’s worried. Time is just disappearing and the shows and trackdays are looming…
