Can I RESTORE my Dad's old Ford Mondeo BARN FIND and Drive it 200K miles? Part 1

To most people this is just an old Mk3 Ford Mondeo, but this was my Dad’s Mondeo and he loved it. Dad set himself the goal of reaching the 200,000 milestone in his Mondeo Zetec; however, sadly he passed away in 2018 just 7K short of his objective. I then took the Mondeo on but shortly after it failed an MOT and I parked it in my barn. Now, over 6 years later with the car untouched, it is time to return the Mondeo to the road, to complete his 200,000 mile goal… there’s a lot to do! In this video I tell you how I am going to restore this old car, start some MAJOR work and I face a serious dilemma. It’s fair to say, I go way further than originally intended. I really hope you enjoy the video, please subscribe to follow this restoration and thank you for watching. 👍 Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/cornishcarcollectors/ Facebook - https://www.facebook.com/penntorr.cars/ ---------- Video Content ---------- 00:00 – Introducing Dad’s Mondeo Zetec TDCi. 04:55 – What’s the Plan? 10:18 – Work starts on Dad’s Mondeo. 13:08 – Tidying up some minor rust. 20:13 – Time for the rear subframe to go back on the Mondeo. 23:23 – My BIG Dilemma!
