Hi and thank you for all the nice comments....
I know B1 RMA that the exhaust isn't standard but I always loved the Cosworth tail pipe and that’s the style I wanted for the Fuego. The car is standard except for a few tasteful modifications, the exhaust is a full stainless Powerflow exhaust system, the BBS alloys have increase from 14’ to 15’, I have added a dump valve and a KN induction kit as I still think I’m a teenager and the bonnet has louvers pressed in it!
Jamie, ok when I get a chance I will post them on that site and after all the hard work I’m going to hang onto the car but thanks for the offer!
My next project Andy is a subframe on a GTA, I must be mad!
Ok Warwick, here I come, there were many days doing the Fuego where I needed a lump hammer, can of petrol and a match but I stuck it out,….lol! Keep Going!
YEAH!

Loving it! I used to have a black one with electric webasto and leather seats, was a very nice car, only sold it about three years ago.... wonder if it still exists......

Very nice !.

I had a Fuego 2.0 GTXwhen i was 19. Which if i remember correctly was 110bhp.
I really wish i got the turbo as the 2.0 was SLOW... and thirsty.
