- One of the rarest production Fords of its era, this 1990 Escort 1600 Sport is presented in striking Radiant Red with Recaro Grey and Red interior. It is understood that as few as 28 examples are believed to survive today, with only 5 currently UK-registered, making this an exceptionally scarce opportunity
- Subject to a comprehensive, ground-up restoration to an exacting standard, resulting in an outstanding example with exceptional fit, finish and attention to detail throughout
- Equally suited to a collection of significant Fords or proudly displayed on the concours lawn or at any classic Ford event
- Sympathetically upgraded for enhanced performance and drivability with a Vulcan Engineering-built 1.6-litre engine breathing through twin Weber 45 carburettors
- Importantly, the original “matching numbers” factory engine accompanies the sale and will require collection directly from the vendor following the auction
- Further enhancements include front Wilwood and “Cosworth” rear disc brake conversions together with Gaz shock absorbers, significantly improving the Escort's road manners without detracting from its character
- Completing the purposeful appearance are period-style 16-inch Compomotive alloy wheels, perfectly complementing the car's sporting credentials
- Restored and finished to a standard rarely achieved, this exceptionally rare Escort Sport deserves early inspection to fully appreciate the quality of the workmanship and the opportunity on offer
