Topic: Can you Identify these Flashy Cars from The '70s?
The World War II convoy departed Liverpool on 11 December 1942 and was met on 12 December by Mid-Ocean Escort Force Group B-7. A collab between Ford and Cosworth, RS500s were built to Group A touring racing regulations and were both mechanically and cosmetically enhanced compared to a standard Sierra RS. Both of the RS500s, which represent the pinnacle of 1980s fast Ford engineering, are finished in black. Rob Hubbard, Managing Director and Principal Auctioneer, commented: 'This selection of fast Fords captures the spirit and passion that make these cars so legendary among enthusiasts. Not limited to just those there's notably also a 2023 Ford RS 200, a 1983 Ford Fiesta, a 1983 Ford Capri, and a 1985 Ford Escort for Fast Ford fans to keep an eye out for. Last but not least is a highly original and unrestored 1985 Escort RS Turbo Series 1 finished in an iconic Diamond White colour. This one has had just one owner and is unmodified from new, coming with a factory-specified Custom Pack, original SRT32P stereo, RS 3-spoke steering wheel and rear parcel shelf (with factory speakers), plus original Motorcraft service items.
