Has been quite some time since I updated this page hope you are all well Done all 4 ball joints last weekend along with new disc and pads. managed to get a 4 branch on after what felt like an age to source a genuine down pipe. Funny story going to the mot set off at the traffic lights and the back of the seat calapsed as the car set off. So I ended up falling back with the seat as it set looking at the sealing lol Massive thank you to my long term cortina mentor Craig walker for welding the broken bracket. Few pics of it recently my daughter has recent started to take a big interest which is good hoping to get the subframe off this winter and replace all the bushes and general freshen up of the body Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

There’s various methods to protect it. With the roof I’d use a rust treatment which I think hammerite do called “curust” I think. then spray it normal in satin black. I under seal my mk4 yearly with hammerite wax oil . Think in interior type of specialist could help with the t bar foam? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Well I've still got the car lol Not updated this thread due to not really doing much to it after the cylinder head re build apart from enjoying it. Just replaced the rear cylinders as they was fooooked and it was a good job I had a spare adjuster as the teeth had worn out on the drivers rear Need to sort the front splitter out as it's a little high in the middle Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Yep I enjoyed it. Thought the strip was quite at times though

I use 20/50 in mine each year along with zx1 friction eliminator. It's really good stuff to add to standard oil
