Just before I head too bed ready for the early hour shifts. 

What's your favourite photo you taken of your pride and joy, doesn't have too be your current can be any car owned in the past. 

You took a photo and look back thinking wow that was a perfect shot. 

Mine has too be this one just after the Newcastle classics at the castle show. 

Warning may make your eyes water not everyone's taste but I've always gone my own way. 😉

Nope its a Ford probe badges as a Ford but with a Mazda engine and gearbox but with a ford chassis body and interior  design, This body of the car was meant too be the mustang back in the States as a replacement  for there current model at the time, was originally  meant too be a V8 engine, but with Auto alliance  joint venture between ford and Mazda at the time,  used the Mazda engine from the 626 and MX6. 

A US import, didn't quite get the same reaction here in the UK, plus the hardcore Ford Capri fans didn't really catch on as this in a way was a Capri MK3 and because  of the styling well no one tuned  a blind eye,  Plus its a front wheel drive not Rear wheel drive like the Capri, if it was I reckon this would have been a winner back then. 

Still for those who love them like myself will still appreciate these cars for what they are 🙂 

 

Great project build there pal, that's what I love seeing cars being build for purpose. 😉 

Keeping going my friend 🙂

Honestly I think they look brilliant at first glance  I thought they were  coated in shadow chrome.

Never heard of that car honestly but looks good. At first glance I was thinking is that a mitsubishi or MR2 😂

To be fair you don't see many on the road (I'm not sure you did even when they were current either).

I remember seeing quite a few Probes around in the late 90s myself...there were two on my road at the time lol.  One purple and one kingfisher.  Pop up headlights and twister alloys, very 90s and very cool!  

When I look back at photos I've previously taken they never seem to look as good as I remember lol.  I do like a moonrise type backdrop on car shots though, so here's a couple of Ford ones I've taken...

The Fiesta is probably scrapped now.  The Focus lives on somewhere!

Oh, and a GTi6 one with the same style lol.  That's probably been scrapped now too.

There getting pretty rare now not many on the road what so ever and slowly dying out. 

Same thing in the States and the rest of Europe, They were certainly eye catching and very sporty and race look. 

 One of my favourite done too this was add the duel exhaust system complete stainless including manifolds, love the sound of this thing never gets old. 😉 

Liking the cars mate. 😉
