Hi guys, I have just acquired a silver 2000 1.7 ford puma and am after a little help if possible.
I know a lot off you might think here we go again, but I believe on making a car look its rightfull self and have pride in it
Upon checking around this car I've seen it needs a little work in following area's and any advice is most helpful
1. water washers only work now and then ? bottle seems to not be working (possible pipe split), is this common and do I access it through drivers wheel ?
2. doors open light on dash remains on even with doors shut ? is this a door card remove and clean sensors or what is needed ?
3. rust round rear arches ( arches seem to have been sprayed, but bubbling still showing) and drivers side widow pillar near middle badley rotted and trim need replacing, ?
4. rear seat belt being cut, is this an easy replace ?
5. doors and bonnet seem to be catching slightly, is there an adjust ?
6. a plug has been cut underneath ? can I just buy a pug with wire and block connect to old one ?
7. Plastic in boot looks like it needs replacing, due to cracks in it etc can this be done ?
8. for next mot it says inner and outer sills needs doing, is this a weld job or can be replaced ? if replaced how do I replace them ?
9. interior looks to have seen better days ! is it easier to replace seats for a different set or is there a temp fix anyone can suggest or anyone selling some at right price ?
10. Is it easy to add a rear spoiler or shouls I not bother ?
It might seem a lot off work, but I wanna try and get this car looking spot on, so any help is welcome thanks and any additional work you might think is worth me doing to spruce up the car
