Would not start

But now it does...
After stripping the wiring harness from the Sierra taking out electric windows, mirrors etc.
The car would not start no spark, following the wires back from the switch to fuse box and throught the car, found a couple of wires from the old alarm/imoboliser had come loose reconnected and ignition lights on spark at the plugs.
Went out got petrol and put it down the carb (tank not connected) and away it went chuffed to bits and it sounds well.
Prop shaft and brakes to sort out next as iam desperate to drive it.

must admit did feel like giving up but been stubborn i wanted to build it and finish it.

Sorry for going on but just so chuffed.
