Re: Sahin's FTO, Number 2!
Some progress on this one today! 
Got all the Dash lights, Fog lights, and Tail lights all fixed today.
Turns out it was the Dimmer switch... retards that put it in had it wired in completely wrong.. so i rewired that and BAM! everything works lol
So now that, that was done i put all the interior back together
Still need to fix the speedo.. i think it's the speed sender... could someone please shed some light on what would cause the speedo to not work, the odometre doesnt go up either?
Things it needs
-New Battery
-Set of rims and new tires
-Speedo Fixed

Re: Sahin's FTO, Number 2!
I done quite a lot of work on this one today as i had an early day from work 
First of all was a massive clean out of the interior and the boot.. the boot was absolutely filthy so i stripped everything out of it and gave it a good wash in there... and the car had so much crap in it lol but there was about 7 screw drivers so thanks for that Phi
Next up was a new battery, tie down bar and new terminals
The first thing was putting the terminals on, that was the easy part.. the hard part was the battery tie bar lol the holes werent big enough for the rods and i had to drill new holes for them. Was such a pain because its such thick stainless steel.. luckily i have a drill press so it was easier then a hand drill. next was the actual rods being so long that when installed hit the bonnet when you shut it. So i had to grind them down quite a bit with my bench grinder aswell haha here's some photo's

Re: Sahin's FTO, Number 2!
The tie down i got from topgun also did not fit both my battery size or my tie down rods. I though it was just my specific tie down. I eventually gave up on trying to make it work as in the end i decided it was a bit too 'flashy' for my current bay anyway. Now an ornament for my tool chest 
Good to see some real pride going into it - going to be mint in no time at this rate!
Just need another 2 space savers and you're set

@ Daniel, awesome photoshopping, your'e the new goto guy
My speedo didn't work and the speedo sensor on the gearbox needed replacing, $85 from Mitsi, take it out and see if the gear on it still has teeth.
I Photoshopped your new wing on...
