Body - Export spec shell with similar strengthening to our RS models. Good original inner wings, strut tops, chassis, sills, rear arches. Good doors boot and bonnet. Will need small repairs on both front floors where they meet the kick panels. Tank well looks like its had a repair in the past. Otherwise looks all original underneath. We can do the work on this if required. Please ask for a quote. Paintwork is nice and tidy. Pictures make it look more purple than it actually is Good looking car in the flesh. Good quarter bumpers. Original; Ford spotlights. Front spoiler.
Mechanics - Car starts, runs and drives. Engine sounds ok. Carb may need adjusted for the different climate. Gearstick feels a bit sloppy and could do with sorting.
