Wow another very clean one. What steels are they, very nice! The steels are from a Mk2 Mondeo (1996-2000).They were only used as a spare wheel,took me a while to find 5 of them being spare wheels,they come up on ebay,the bonus with being a spare is they have had little or no use,they came black so need painting.

Looks great! A well setup 1600 XR2 engine on your 1400 Box will turn this into a XR3i eater ;-D

car looks really clean. however i hope you don't take offence at this, but i cannot for the life of me work out why youve replaced a nice set of rs7 spokes with some crappy steelies. they don't look nearly so nice and actually have negative effects on both the performance and handling of the car

Saw a pic of a Mk4 on the Mondeo steels & thought they looked good,plus I'm set to lower the car 35-40mm so the 15"s should look better.

Update time.Got a set of nos Escort Mk3 base model steel wheel Centre caps,bit of brute force need to get them,i think they finish Of the Mondeo wheels nicely plus it's keeping in with the 'Ford' Theme. Car went in last Thursday for the lowering springs to be fitted,the shocks are fairly new also which is a result,35m drop which i thought is just subtle,looks so much better,sits nice & level. Heres a 'before pic' Few pics yesterday after a quick wash. Got 2 pairs of Sparco mudflaps,just need to cut to size/shape.

After alot of searching i finally managed to source a set of door cards as the original fronts were damaged,plus wanted some in grey to match the Recaros.These are out of a Orion GL,now need the electric window handles as theres a hole in trim. Mud flaps fitted.
