have ideas of what i want to do, the typical, lower it, prob try and get a cossie body kit, alloys, intererior. I aint driving it atm, and therefore aint in any hurry, so i am going to be searching out the least expensive parts i can find, hence looking for the scrap yards etc.

any info would be greatly appreciated.

Get the Performance Ford magazine, it has loads of ads about modders, parts etc (I'm sure it's much cheaper if you take the ferry, and drive around in Wales a bit, that get the parts here - see http://www.boards.ie/vbulletin/forumdisplay.php?forumid=235.) Then I'd subscribe to some of the Ford newsgroups and forums, I'm sure somebody already did what you're going to do, and will have some advice. Finally, don't forget to post some pics when you're finished:-)
