This lot will be auctioned via Classic Car Auctions, The Christmas Sale 2023 on Saturday the 9th of December, Warwickshire Event Centre, CV31 1XN.
Purchased in November 1974 from Bristol Street Motors Birmingham, this fascinating Mexico has remained in current ownership until now with zero previous keepers
In 1989, after 15 years of daily use and 112, 000 miles, the car underwent a full engine rebuild, various upgrades and body repairs (detailed in Condition Report), and has been used sparingly since, covering less than 22, 000 miles
Finished in Modena Green with a black vinyl stripe over a Black Vinyl interior with the 6-dial dash and RS steering wheel
Powered by its original, though rebuilt, 1. 6-litre cross-flow inline-four, which produces around 85bhp and drives the rear wheels via a 4-speed manual transmission
Recently featured on the Late Brake Show, emerging from the garage after seven years of storage, the Mexico has now been partially recommissioned and is ready for its new owner to take to the next level
Supplied with original handbooks, all invoices, Haynes workshop manual, vehicle history handwritten by the owner before his passing along with fascinating period correspondence with Ford, three keys and numerous original parts
Opportunities like this do not arrive very often and this could be the perfect winter project for any Performance Ford fan or Blue Oval enthusiast
