Do you have all of your cars RSOC feature at Dunton?? I have scans if not
Last two pics took by me, as our dads friend was ford rally manger for europe and commisionned the three cars to be built (yellow one aswell) ,cleaned the car for him then he took us out then came back and chucked us the keys and said go out and have fun, not bad when it was brand new and had about 800 miles on it

how you been anyhow mate?

hope everything's good



i bought it off a lad carl dunn from workington,and he bought it from somewere way down south,i think he got it off ebay if i remember right

so it might be a pic from just before carl bought it that the previous owner may have took for the ebay add?

carl also said it had been stored in a barn for while,so fuck knows he is on here so hopefully he notices this thread and adds his bit

Oite russell,,

I bought the car from down south off a farmer who had it sat in his barn for years, The front end pic is when i first got it and then done bits with it and didnt have time to finish so it sat for near on a year and then thats when russell got it from me..

pm me your address russell as i still have spare keys etc for it too

Nope. Ford haven’t had the yellow “Acropolis” one for many years. It actually went over to France where it was used in amateur rallies. I believe it is now back in the U.K.

The registration of it is L67KPU. It is showing that the MOT expired in May 2018, so I’m assuming it is locked away in someone’s lockup. I’ve got a few pics of the car.

Sorry, I should have asked your permission before replying. My fault.

Passionford used to be a great way of finding things out and continuing a thread if there was anything unanswered on it as due to it being in the public domain, there’s often more than 1 person who is interested to know an answer to something.

But I’ll stand corrected. I’ll crawl back under my rock or seek your permission in the future before posting anything. Have a nice day.
