Love these videos. Such a refreshing change from the usual UA-camrs with unobtainable cars and adverts trying to sell you meal replacement shakes every 5 minutes. Top work 👍🏻
Yeah the thing with Adam is we can see the amount of hard work he puts into restoring them back to how they should be and I am sure we don't even see half of the stuff he actually does. If he resells any of these all I'd do is say "Here's my channel" showing him working on them, it's the best advertisement and peace of mind there is for anyone buying these restored versions. Adam is such a genuine guy. 🙂
You sound like you haven't had your Y food
Adam, You might be aware but ringers back in the day (90s) were very cute at welding in correctly stamped floor numbers. So good even when the paint was removed around the stamp you could hardly see the weld. Highlighting the weld using dye penetrant was able to show whether the stamp area had been changed. Always check every glass panel for etching, and remove any stickers on them, as Ive seen them with etched windows with the original reg no hidden with stripes/alarm stickers etc. I don't doubt you know your'e way around with motors, wouldnt want you getting caught out mate. Amazing skills your detailer has , very impressive. It didnt look that dirty.
A few people have asked how much I paid for the car and how much I sold it for.
I paid £13k or £13.5 recovered home after fuel, coffee, food, recovery etc
I spent a lot of money on the car
New suspension £900
New wheels. £600
New full interior £1200 (with new seat foam, van hire, fuel etc)
Full new fuel system with new fuel tank, fuel pump, fuel loom, fuel hoses, clips etc £1000
There must easily be another £3-4k in other small parts, paint, new badges, new lights, new bolts, oils, filters, hoses, cables, etc.
I then sold the car for £20k. So I maybe broke even. Probably lost a little if I’m honest, but I had fun doing it. 🤩
Well done buddy you done a nice job on that yourself! Csnt wait to see more on the escort cossie 👊🏻👍🏻
When did you sell it? Seems cheap for a minter???
The horn part is comedy gold. Great vid 👍
🤣🤣🤣
Hi Adam, another great video mate especially loved the bit changing the steering wheel when you jumped as the horn kept beeping lol 😂
Some of that grey raptor chassis sealer would be a great addition to the Escort RS. A lot of hard work put into the Sierra restoration and content updates thanks Adam.
Hi Adam, nice work by your self. I have pased that to. For little metal parts, try to consider to bring them on yellow zinc coating. It is cheap, also it is very good protection and it looks very nice. Just continue rescuing that cars and give them love. They are in good hands 👍
Nice work, Adam. Another one rescued from neglect.
First time watching your work, mate, and what a joy it was ! Your attention to detail is awesome 👌 👏. The car horn section was hysterical 😆 🤣 like something that happens to me . Top drawer, mate .
At 11 minutes and 40 seconds....... Back in the day someone was parked up the backroads listening to Bonkers looking cool on his TSW Hockenheim Rs and just as he was about to make a Jamaican cigarette he lost his last smoke somewhere down the side of the seat.
Wow, for a mackem you've made a canny job on that. Well done son 👍👏👏
loved the series on the sapphire cossie, but she had to go to make room got the escort cossie 🏎️ , loving the new series on it & the work youve put into her so far & in futurexepisodes , well done Adam, keep up the good work 👏👏
Brilliant video adam another one saved 😊
Theres a white sapphire cosworth around the corner from me & its been sat there for a good few yrs body looks ok on it.
Hahah the steering wheel change was hilarious haha what a good watch
bro amazing stuff! Cossie restoration
Remember watching the build of this from start was an amazing transformation you done Adam.sad you got rid of it but then again you got the escort cossie which will be amazing when you get your the bottom of the niggles with it 👊🏻👊🏻👍🏽👍🏽
Horn works !
44:54 I'm just going to presume that wasn't you Adam. We'll say no more about it lol.
Lovely job
The saph ended up amazing
Great Job matey !
Fixing that horn @ *& # ! Comedy Gold 🙂
I can see this video doing some views, well done!
Loved watching this 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
Has that ever been registered to. Bloke in balornock Glasgow?? Looks like a friend's uncles,I sat in his drive under a tarp for six years,,
Well done mate...looks good 👌
Nice video again Adam! loved it. What dumpvalve did you put on this cossie??
Adam Smith your a legend 👏 🙌...👊
When you are doing rust in the bottom you need to paint the inside of the new peace to make it not rust again
Don't like watching the same thing twice but it turned out nice car
Not bothered about been level but more straight 😂
Nice Car, umm red reverse lights ha whats going on there?
How much are the sierra cosworth badges worth,??
Did not cheak the engine oil level ???
Looked a tidy car in end but not keen on wheels or steering wheel i'd have preferred to stay with orignal cosworth
Shame you didn't sort the spoiler struts otherwise a fantastic job .
Great videos, I'm hooked on your channel m8 😊
I would off got the standard stearing wheel recoved
Horn fright 😂😂😂
Class 👍👍
That was one ropey car to begin with.
Yep good enough to watch the videos then don't tell you nowt about the main ingredient
Just got to end. Can't believe you've undone all your good work by fitting those shite wheels! Why didn't you keep the originals? So much nicer.
Beautiful 🤩 work 💪
Adam, waited until the end for you to say how much you’d spent and sold it for. But sadly you didn’t.
WELL DONE SON 👍🇬🇧
Wish I had thought of that John
He could just text it here for you 👍
I am guessing he paid around £13,000 for the car and sold it for around £20,000
Stunning mini restoration, my favourite bit had to be you swearing at the horn though 😂
Fair bloody play to you Adam lad you worked ya knackers off on that Cosworth, and it definitely showed once you had finished. Blimey what a transformation!!! 😮
Great watch Adam the car amazingly had very little actual corrosion that was really interesting..lot of time effort and hard work put in..although not full restoration you did a fantastic job fella..well done 👍
So after Adam does all the hard-work, how much does he sell it for?
Already watched all your individual videos on the restoration. This compilation shows what a great job you’ve done. Some useful stuff in there on where to source parts and tackle some of the smaller cosmetic jobs as well.
Absolutely fantastic job you have skills my friend 🇬🇧👍🇬🇧👍
Not a Ford fan but find myself loving these videos 🇬🇧👍🇬🇧👍
11:37 someone stashed a full cig there? 😂How can that end up perfectly in that gap?
27:30 Adam Vs Horn hahaha
*ADAM YOU BOUGHT ANOTHER COSSIE?* 👍👍
Fairplay to you Adam for taking these projects on. Keeping them on the road is the most important thing. And hopefully make a few quid along the way. Thanks for the content. 👍
I remember back around 1999 going to see a white one near me in Scotland, the dealer wanted 7k for it, it was a total shed so I walked away and bought an Audi A4
We have all been there. Back in the day I went and looked at an E30 M3 for sale at 5k. Bought a newer E36 325i convertible instead..... what a divvy
.. Salut my friend super car super video subscribe subscribe ..
Was good seeing this recap of the restoration, I like when you mention paint booth and then show pic of shed 😂, your content just gets better every time Adam 👍
He keeps buying more and more Cossies! 🙂
I really do like the direction this channel is going. Fair play to you Adam 👍😉
Really nice restoration buddy. And thank you so much for correcting something that I absolutely despise. The debadging of cars. I just don't understand why people do it. I can understand if you are trying to make your 1.1 Litre Fiesta look like an ST, but then you're just a cunt if you do that lol.
I have a photo of me in a white Cossie at the launch in the secc motor show,,Linda lusardi was launching the Mazda MX-5,I much preferred a photo in the Cossie🤟😎🤟
ALL ALUMINIUM needs etch primer so top coat has proper adhesion, but u didnt use any primer at all!!!if yer gunna try educating peeps try at least to get the basics right 😊
Wow what a great vid dude you made an excellent job of this 😊 first vid I’ve watched of yours subscribed 👍 Pete
Should've kept it and built thst 500bhp engine, would've made brilliant content,now all we get is tit tat petty bits fixing that wrotbox escort,wasted talent
i was brough up with these fords and they are total rust buckets your fighting a war against rust you will never win 51 years old..no matter how much you love the car..you will lose and it will be a money pit
Your an inspiration to me girlfriends brother to start getting my xr2i off flats and give him a project for the winter months.. ill be there kettle in hand k-riz in the other;)
@adam151082 can u actually weld or just had a go at it? always feel tempted to buy a welder and have a crack at arch repair panels on my e46 cab.
I was gripped fro startcto finish may favourite car in my favourite colour i fist saw 1 when i was 15 in 1986 to say thery are good looking is a understatement
Its need LANNOWWWWEGUARD ,lol laugh out loud when its called LANAGUARD .But hes a geordie .
Was the 4x4 a better car? Is that what had the leather interior, etc? .. you didn't have an amazing job on that, mate 👏 it just shows what you cam achieve with hard graft and patience
You done a amazing job cosworths looking great
Great recap, half tank of fuel result,
Absolutely mint video but the steering wheel changing has class absolutely crying at the horn 😂😂😂😂😂
How many times can a man watch this, it's worse than police programmes going over everything you have already seen after the advert break
Great video, lad. Love the way you're putting it all back to standard. Geogeous car. ❤
Just came across your channel and i have toto say i love it ,,liked and subscribed, keep them coming mate 👍
The car looks really good now Adam . The only thing I would have done differently is kept the original wheels
Doing god's work. Reviving the 4 door version of the greatest car ever made.
Great video I'm quite new to your channel so not seen all your videos, is this siera cossie the older one you sold to get the escort cossie ?
I was peeing myself laughing when you were changing the steering wheel mate😂😂😂😂😂
Also where did you buy door mouldings and bumper stripes can you share please?
Would you be willing 3take 25g once I've had a look and I'm happy
The repeated jump every time the horn went off as if it was a surprise had me buckled🤣
I was meant to be goin out for my birthday, now i'm an hour late, ffs...
We need some nice evo 12345678910 content on the channel
You should’ve kept sapphire cossy Adam
Great video and well done 👍 How much profit did u make if any?
Great video but that music is really annoying 😬
Where in Scotland did you get it Adam? I recognise it
Look at what you made of it tho 😍
I a seen this a long time ago Adam can not wait to see the end result 🙂
That horn! 🤣you had me dying as I know the pain!
What’s the white foam you sprayed on the car

Adam u still working on the engine u bought
Hahaha every time he scared himself with the horn
That belt was wild lol how that stayed on i dont know lol
Incredible job, car is stunning
Enjoyed watching that again 👏
