Doesn't look anywhere near this good anymore. It was originally red and was a Mcnew's edition focus from back in the day. I will post some pics of it's current state tomorrow.

Tranny was shifting a little hard and i was concerned there was water in it so i decided to drain it out and flush it and switch it to some fresh ford honey. Here's what came out.

This is my good freind Andy. He is the guy who fabbed up my turbo kit for me and is a very good fabricator and welder. He was helping me repair the damage from the roof scoop. had a bunch of screw holes and a huge die grinder cut that needed welded shut.

This is the damage that was done were the ww mid wing was ripped off. They must have used a large screwdriver or prybar. i ordered a new mid wing to go over the area and hide most of the damage. Also pictured is the green gas door that i got from a slavage yard to replace the broken one.

It's six different colors(red, baby blue, yellow, primer, flat black, and green) right now and i may add a sen=venth color if i can find a good oem rear bumper to replace this damaged one. But it has run great so far and this is how it looks going down the road. I get lots of looks in both of my Foci.
