Default 1983 mk1? fiesta

found quite a clean one but have no idea if its worth anything? its a cat c due to being stolen recovered which i know isnt a very nice history for a classic so is it worth much?

wow thats tidy! Suppose it depends how much the cat c part bothers you, with something like that i wouldnt worry, its more the condition of the shell thats important?

I'd have thought about £500? but i may be very wrong lol

So what if it's a Cat C - it's solid, it's retro so who cares ! Even if not the hit list not worth much so get it bought if the price is sensible.

i think the older ones like that have to be bought mainly on condition, i bet most fords of that age have had a minor bump, or bit paintwork etc.
