[garthbtp]

Hi All,

I'm new to the forum i was just wondering if any the members may have photos or information of my mates' old RS1800 registration RNK 350R it was displayed at the Brighton car show circa 1984/1985 and was stolen by some lowlife a few years later.It was kitted out with alot of RS parts and had i believe had MOTORCRAFT decals on the sides. Any help would be much appreciated.

Cheers Garth.

Hi Garth,
I have pics of an rs1800 with a similar reg SNK 746R, white with black vinyl roof from 86/87. Probably supplied by the same ford dealer.
Not much help, but interesting anyway.

Hi there Garth,
Garth has spoken to me about this car, we know the chassis number and the fact it came from Luton.There is a poor photo in a early rallye news mag, but thats about it.

Lee, lock you car mate I`m coming round!!!!! NOT.

cheers Dave.

Cheers Dave for the reply will we ever get any photos of this elusive car, oh by the way Lee, Dave is an ace car thief i should know mines been on axle stands for years after he stole my wheels, or is it i'm to lazy to get on and finish what i started. How about if anybody has any good pics of 1800 to post them up on the site cheers Garth.

[Dave1800BDA]

well what do you expect from a monkey, a chunky one at that!!!!!
Now on a serious note, RAA did you or previous owner take the car to club meets in Totton years ago as I seem to remember it,
cheers Dave

yes!! the car used to be shown!! in working class me thinks? i bought it from a guy in lymington, he had owned it for 17 years, showed it for 7, then tucked it away for 10 years, where upon i became the happy owner, i paid far too much for it, all the big jobs are done now, and i would like to see it being shown again,....hopefully within the next 18 months.

here is a rather poorly taken snap of an rs1800 at ford fair last year. i'd eat dog poo for a drive in one like this!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Methinks that car is owned by Stuart O'dell !

He supports the MKII RS club and he may well be at Stanford on National day

We need loads of MKII's at Stanford this year
