1978 MK1 Ford Fiesta 1800 Zetec

The Zetec engine and the MK11 Ford Fiesta seem to be a match made in heaven. I bet this modified Ford is an absolute blast!

From the seller: “This is a one-family owned Vehicle, 5 members of the same family have owned this car from new in 1978, past down through the family, finally coming to me. Originally a 1100S, I have given it a modified refurb, over a period of years, and it has now been stored for the last couple of years so will require recommissioning e.g brakes servicing etc. Still a few jobs outstanding and a chance for someone else to take over the car as an ongoing project and to put their own mark on it. Modifications and refurb as follows, though not an exhaustive list ;

Full respray, but could now do with a couple of touch ups
1800cc Zetec Engine with four branch manifold, 5 speed gear box upgrade, running on R1 bike carbs
Gaz Gold suspension, front and rear
Adjustable tie rods, front and rear
Adjustable Panhard rods
Upgraded front breaks, with ventilated discs
Mill tech stainless steel exhaust
Custom made centre console
Custom made header tank and washer bottle
Stainless steel spark plug cover and cam cover
Vibe tech engine mounting
Strut brace, front and rear
Front spot lights
Recaro seats
Alloy wheels
CD Radio”
