thinking ahead
I can finally see the light at the end of the tunnel on my viento build. It should be on target for SVA at the start of next summer.
When its finished I want to start another project but funds will be almost zero.
Sat on the drive way is a V reg fiesta in good condition that I was about to sell ( if I do SWMBO will spend all the money from it)
I was just wondering if there was a kit to convert it into a buggy or something just for the fun of it!

Martin Keenan (MK ENGINEERING) built a spaceframe for a Fiesta. I think it was for a Zetec rear wheel drive config. I have also seen cossy powered
Fiestas before.

When I die, I want to go peacefully like my Grandfather did, in his sleep -- not screaming, like the passengers in his car.

Sylva Riot - mainly Fiesta parts I think. Might be able to fund some of the build by selling off the parts of the car that you don't use
