First post!

Hello Guys,

Since I'm around the forums again I thought I would catch everyone up on my project since I haven't touched it since 2006. Times were hard for me since then but I never got rid of the Fuego. I started again on this project last year in October when I purchased a better body for my project. All i need left is the front bumper.

Here are pictures of the engine build and the old body.

And that's where the project ended its life back on October 14th, 2006

Ok, So last year in October I found a Fuego for sale which I had not seen one for sale in over 5 years. It had a better body and a sunroof which my project car did not have. I decided I would pick it up and try to resurrected the project I had started 8 years earlier.

And so started another project. One to be combined with the engine that was already done.

This is a really great project - very interesting as we hardly ever see any Fuego's over hear anymore. Keep up the good work.

On a side note these cars are also non existent in North America also. Haven't seen one for sale since I purchased mine.

I think I saw one in a photo put up by Antonio from a meet he went to in The States, just not something you would expect to see there at all.
