You will have to check the body for rust cause with it been an old ford it will no doubt have rust on it somewhere.A friend of mine had a RS1800 and it was a good car.It went well too.

and get that idea of going ZVH turbo out of your head as youve got a much better zetec already in the RS1800 so zetec turbo it using a 2 litre silvertop as the base engine.
