Default post pics of your retro rides

if you want to post a pic of a ford it has to be pre 1980(to save on the mountain of saff pics).

METAL BUMPERS ALL THE WAY!

it was original, until i fitted the wheels. its soon to be for sale too unfortunatly, but another old ford is on the cards to replace it.




you can just see the damaged rear quarter where i erm... got caught out in the snow




and this one isn't mine, probably never will be <-- real tears lol. but its my favourite mk1 escort of all time.

im not too sure which one you mean as there are two RED mk2s! but the RS2000 is the original one! never been welded does about 40miles a year!
but i really dont think you've seen it at croft!
it lives in herts, and makes one trip a year and thats to FordFair!

and no it doesnt have 'sum piece of kit' under the bonnet, it has a standard rs2000 engine! with original air box and all! owned and driven by a 75year old bloke! it still has the original 'white' RS 4spokes on it, as they originaly came in white.
