Rs2000 barn find

[FOR24D]

I know what you mean I have a RS (70000 miles) that had been sat in a garage for over 19 years that also needs a lot of work but all the hard to find bits or on it. I am going to finish my project then sell it to ofund that one as you say DEEP pockets needed. Get it bought you know it make ssence As for panels try http://www.tjmotorsport.co.uk/ He is a great bloke and if you are a member on TS you get 10% discount too

Am out of the running with this RS ! Pushing on my Mk2 MEX , for the 10th lakes , again it's been deep pockets ! This ones a keeper and my last , it's getting very expensive !! And my wife's having out 3rd child ( my 6th ) on Monday so no spare time for 2 cars , just about time for the red MEX !!

I use NOS panels , kills the pockets. But best way forward in terms of panels and Standard of car when completed

What's the story on this barn find? How many owners? What mileage? History? I notice it has a period "Cobra" alarm sensor on the top of the dash, same as my car had.

I'm not wanting to buy the car, but just interested in it's story and history. I just love Mk2 RS Escorts, I own a Mk2 RS Mexico...owned since 1979!

I hope the car is restored to its former glory.

I get on very well with Darran , and am keen to buy , but times not right . But I have done a few cars over the last couple of years , one of them was a 2 owner , once you strip and blast the shell it's deep pocket time ! Parts / panels etc etc Yes Darren will have some parts ( but he's a rent boy at heart !! lol , Marks the grafter !!! lol ) but good old ebay has made sure parts are crazy prices , and sometimes you land up with more shite as some ebay sellers don't care or know . Best of luck Darren ! Am trying not to pick the phone up and deal with you for this RS2000

You know you want this

Your right with Mark he's the worker.
I'm the brains LOL
Cash in the post please mate

We brought it out of Essex,
Was used from new till 1988, went into storage till 9 years ago.
Had 2 owners in this time,next door neighbours!!
Either used it!
Was mainly stored under cover,,but not all the time hence pictures!
cheers

Love the electric ariel

That car is crying out to be treated with some Bilt Hamber, tarted up a little bit and put back on the road used as it should be.

BTW seeing how some of the prices of Escorts seem to be off the planet that's not a too bad.....

How much is the shipping to oz
