Unfortunately with RST's this is the story. If it wasn't for the attachment I have to the car, it would have prob gone 7 years ago. Every year there was a disaster. Broke it once, kept shell, wheels, etc. Rebuilt it at a cost and boom, head looked like someone had used Oxy acetylene on it. For absolute constant unreliability you can't beat a Ford. Had a MR2 Turbo I sold to help fund the comeback and it never missed a beat once. Say's something I think
