Bad Points

PROPSHAFT NEEDS BALANCING OR REPLACING WHICH IVE BEEN TOLD IS NO MORE THAN £50 SO WHEN YOU DRIVE THE CAR PAST 50 MPH THERE IS A SLIGHT VIBRATION

THERE IS ABOUT 5 BITS OF RUST ON THE BODY

FRONT SEATS COULD DO WITH A RETRIM BUT IVE SEEN WORSE

AND NEEDS ATUNE UP DUE TO ME FITTING A UP RATED DIZZY WITH ELECTRIC IGNITION

All opinions are welcome

Y'know what us ford nuts are gonna say scoob. Im lovin it.Looks like a really tidy example. What would u do with it??

I used to have a lookalike when i was 20 was one of the best cars i have owned had a 2lte pinto and 40's used race one in the british hotrod club (stockcar racing) a waste got loads of stuff of a guy who builds and strips them has his place in ellyport forget his name so parts are easy to come by. This car is (in my eyes) is a proper drivers car light and rwd plus you dont see many of these and cozzy engined ones go like s**t off a shovel. Sold mine to help fund my orion turbo worst thing i have ever done and they have gone up again in price a good one will st you back a couple of grand and that one looks mint will try and get some pics of my old car.

I know it's a ford but it's a classic, and probably one of the most fun rally cars out there. I say go for it.

The damb thing sold today, bumma, guess i will just keep on looking then ????
