SUMMARY
Desirable 'Performance Ford' rebuild project waiting to be started.
DESCRIPTION
- In Diamond White with the classic RS Turbo look featuring a body-coloured front grille and bumpers
- Typical RS interior in a combination of Monza and Cashmere fabrics with Recaro LS bucket seats
- Fitted with the legendary 132bhp, 1600 CVH unit with a turbocharger, computerised fuel-injection and engine management incorporating a boost control
- Purchased as a restoration/recommissioning project some years ago but, as is often the case, other priorities came along
- The engine was refreshed a few years ago and has been started and run on a remote fuel supply
- Good history file adding provenance and value
- The vendor has accrued many items to aid the restoration all of which are available by separate negotiation should any potential buyer wish to purchase them
- We have just sold a stunning restored example for £54,000 just showing that this car surely represents super value guided at £12,000 - £15,000
