Just watched the video where you did the speakers and some electrical stuff, then came to watch this one. My dad used to have a fiesta like this (not the sporty version, but in red with the same wheels) and I've always like old cars since. Seeing someone renovate one is amazing, more of this should be done rather than simply scrapping them and replacing with lame EVs (which are terrible to produce for the environment).

I owned a red one in 1998, many great memories of that car. The looks, the sound. Such fun.
