Description
Ford escort rs2000 1979/ T 2dr saloon with custom interior upgrade.
matching chassis and engine numbers!
Fresh from a 2 year full nut & bolt restoration. Pictures can tell a thousand words so please check them out (more available upon request), this RS2000 looks stunning and is sure to win admiring glances when out and will gain plenty of attention if taken to shows. It may not be a 1 owner concourse example but it is certainly close to that!
The car was stripped to a bare shell then the shell was acid dipped and primed. We have a file of almost 200 pictures showing the full restoration process that we are happy to pass onto the new owner, along with receipts for most items. The rs is as original as it can be apart from a few period correct items to improve the enjoyment. The engine was recently rebuilt to a 2. 1 along with a weber 38 dgas carburetor. The front brakes have been upgraded to include 4 pot brake calipers and pads along with vented discs.
