My old one is in Matts pictures but as I wrote,it was stripped a few owners down the line.Someone out there bought the shell of RSclassics to rebuild but I have been unable to find out where it is.I also got the reg wrong it was 812 not 821 (only owned it three years!).

will be starting a build thead once i have it on stands and ready to work on..

Cilly-jey

Well mine has been painted and will start to put the old girl to gather over the summer.well I won't be but will be trusting close friends to do so. No need to rush as time is on my side. Two years and its road tax free

I heard there was only 24 flat black cars for the directors of ford, and they all had black leather too apparently, mine was 2wd - H206 GKR dunno if its still going though



Cheers

Cilly-jey

Few story's about them but don't no what the true story about them is. I was told 26 but haven't got a clue
So far I think there is 6 left but there will be a few more that are under the radar

dean9595

Not a 2wd but here is my 4x4

Cilly-jey

Looks good pall but sorry only after finding more 2wd.

mk22door

What's the paint code for these?

chowfornow

Long time ago mate but I think mine was A9

Cheers

mk22door

That was my guess!

So that's the what I would call 'normal' 80's/90's Ford Black.

I have a 24v XR4x4 in that colour - I was pleased at how good it looked after using a clay bar, did a bit of t-cut too (the previous owner totally neglected it) came up real shiny!

chowfornow

Flat black cars REALLY Look nice when clean but are REALLY hard to keep clean, and for that reason only I would choose another colour nowadays.

callums

I owned mng for a while in 2006ish

callums

I purchased like this and left it like it and sold it on ,I still got some plates and the original wheels somewhere

This was mine for three years,paint code A9 and leather from new.Miss it



Question for people with a gloss black 2wd.What does your trim code say on your vin plates ?.
L is for shadow cloth and S is for Raven.Mine said SX .Anybody elses say the same ?.

Cilly-jey

Never looked but mine was removed and replaced with cloth. Got a full trim in my 4x4 but the door cards are shagged so sticking with a mint cloth trim.

I was just going off post 49 and the other thread on here.All the hype about directors cars or just special order.Out of all the 2wd in gloss I only see one with cloth.
My mate a g/black 2wd with leather 10 odd years ago but killed it and I also have a set of doors off F200*** G/BLACK .
The only ones left must be on here especialy if they were produced in such low numbers.Out of the way Mercury/crystal blacks the new endangered species

cossie51

This is my Black 2wd which i bought just under 3 years ago which i have been restoring and will hopefully have finished in the next couple of months.

cossie51

Mine came with cloth as its a 1988 F reg and leather was not available till 89 but i have since taken it out and fitted leather .

Cilly-jey

That's one more found. Think that's 7 now then, in rwd
Get some more pics up as it looks good, what you had to do to the old girl?

Cilly-jey

Sorry lads I'm after reg numbers of servicing cars, 2wd only so we can work out how many are out there. So please help and inbox me what ones are left as putting a list together. Then can submit to rsoc so the cars are loged

cossie51

Had to strip it back to a bare shell and start again underneath as the floor was rotten so were the rear chassis rails as had to make new inner and outers plus all the normal places that they rot had to be sorted out.
The had to rebuild the engine from scratch as last owner had taken it apart and then given up hence the car sitting in a garage for 5 years before I bought it. Block was cracked so 200 block fitted plus new pistons, the head was polished and ported and a bd16 inlet fitted and a new wiring loom as now running Pectel T2.
Loads of work done over 3 years before it made it back on the road and still doing jobs now. Will it ever end Lol.

Looks stunning that.Too work matey you have done a good job.

cossie51

Not finished yet Glenn. Still have loads to finish off and bits I want to change, for now it's usable and goes like a rocket with 400 bhp

jamie's

stick me on that list too, i've got 1 of the old press cars, G277YAR, original gloss black, cloth interior, had it 6 years, not sure how to get pics up
you can see it at the back of my avatar pic, theres other pics in the pics bit in my profile i think
also i got told ages ago that there was 55 made, and it was either 12 left or 12 were rhd, cant quite remember
but theres loads of conflicting stories so who knows how true that is?

cossie51

I heard they made 55 but only 12 were right hand drive but never managed to find out if it's true or just a rumour !

s50-touring

tbh i dont have the reg of her yet, ses in kerry now and has been for the last 11 years and the previous owner before that was a kerry man aswell so thats the last 15 years of her life accounted for
