I always like white on white, and this is no exception. Not a fan of the rear lights but that's all personal preference.

Lovely condition by the looks of it..........what's the spec?

Thanks mate,
Spec wise, the list is long and unfinished but so far;
2.8 V6 with kent fast road cam, lightened flywheel and other small mods which my mate did during build up.
Tubular manifolds with twin system stainless exhausts (side exits)
Sparco front seats
Momo steering wheel
Quad conversions front and rear lights
TSW Evo alloys with Toyo R888 tyres
And of course the graphics (its a rolling advert for me tbh)

Future plans (money allowing include) bigger engine and supercharger, rear disc brakes and LSD, bigger front brakes (stopping can be an experience in this thing :o )

Can't you use the brakes from a Scorpio? Or does that mean a hub swap due to the 4 stud/5 stud difference?

Yeah, hub swap mate.

kev think you should have said that braking is a hit a miss thing talk about peddle travel :lol:

its about time you got your pics up of the beast.

when we put the scorpio brakes and callipers on our car didnt have to change the hubs
the new conversion for the sierra is the ST170 brakes and callipers there bigger than cozzy and MUCH cheaper

i love this car :notworthy:
