Hi all, some restoration photos, all under coat completed and in the new blue underneath and inside everywhere. The full re spray should be done in 2 weeks

Hi everyone The restoration is going well it should be finished in about 4 weeks time so I will post some photos soon

Hi it’s a 1974 Ford Escort mk 1 RS 2000 which will not be for the purists because it has been modified by the previous owner to his taste, flared arches, bucket seats, roll cage and some rally switches etc. Still a lot on it as an RS though, white with blue decals, RS alloys, 2 litre original engine and AVO vin plate etc. In my opinion the previous owner has done an amazing job and has rebuilt himself from a rotting shell, he’s the best at total restorations IMO. With having the modifications I have decided to continue with what’s been done already and make it a tribute car aiming for it to be the same as the Ford in Fast and Furious 6, including a bare metal respray to blue with white decals. Photos of now and then the plan.

Pleased to say I have found one and bought one and although it is in very good condition I have decided to ask a friend to restore it with a full bare metal respray

Hi all, my first post, new to the website. I have had two Ford escort RS 2000 both mk 2’s in the last 3 years. Droop snoop and flat front. Both sold recently i found it quite easy to gauge a price for these, when I bought and when I sold 30k average £35k good and £40k very good etc. But I find it very difficult to price up a mk 1 RS 2000 because there are hardly any for sale. I know there will be a big difference in prices depending on how good the car is and how much paperwork there is but for a quite good mk 1 RS2000 (I am looking for one used so showing some paintwork scars etc. and not a garage queen) what is the ballpark cost for one? Are they more expensive than mk 2 due to being more rare?
