SUMMARY
The epitome of a Mk 1 Rally Car, professionally built, well presented and 'on the button'. An absolute cracker.
DESCRIPTION
Built for our enthusiast vendor by Rally World, Maldon, Essex between 2010 – 2013 and based on a Mexico shell which was stripped, repaired and painted. The car has 'forest' flared wings with many Group 4 features included. The engine has been rebuilt by Jondel Race Engines, the rear axle by Gartrac and the gearbox by Rally World, who then restored this stunning Escort. Completed in August 2013, the car was entered on the Red Kite Rally and subsequent outings include the Dmack Rally Carlisle, Neath Valley, and the Roger Albert Clark Memorial rally.
There are a number of invoices on file that relate to the restoration. It was last MOT'd in 2021 (although exempt) and the car is running and driving well with a very responsive engine! Bucket seats, cage, digital dash etc. this Escort is ready to use. Huge performance with a superior professional build and viewing is highly recommended.
