Some engine bay shots of the RS1800.

Such a large engine squeezed into a small space. Plenty of detailing carried out to get this Zetec looking brand new again.

Having no power steering helps keep some driving feel while also keeping the engine bay as clear as possible.

Great to have all the original components for this build. Items like an original airbox can be hard to source these days…

Ford Fiesta RS1800 is now complete.

Pacifica Blue paint looks soo good out in the sunshine.

With a new backbox made to look OEM, the car sailed through its first MOT and is now ready for the owner to get some miles on it.

We’ve thoroughly enjoyed the journey of this build, the car drives fantastically. Although not a turbo the 1800 is much more linear. With more displacement the 1800 is actually easier to drive.

More photos to come soon…

Soo pleasing to see the car back on all 4 wheels! Now for the final panel to go on… 🧩

Always great to see some unique cars here, Porsche 928 just in need of some light polishing.

Fascinating car, cruising around in this in 1982 must have felt in a different league to everything else!

Engine freshened up and assembled. New engine mounts, clutch kit and full service on the engine before heading back in its home!

Seeing the Zetec back in its place is really exciting, seeing the assembly from the underside is something to behold.

Now to get everything connected up…
