1972 Ford Escort Twin Cam For Sale

Probably one of the best twin cam Escorts available. It is a multi-award-winning car and has featured in several publications. Advertised for sale for the first time in 15 years.

Many people are not aware Ford UK exported 750 Escort Twin Cams to Australia between 1970 and 1972 in the form of CKD (Completely Knocked Down ) kits. The local content was limited to Interior trim, tyres and wheels. Making this car one of the last Escort twin cams ever produced globally.

This fine example is a matching numbers car retaining its original engine and gearbox. This is well known to the Rallye Sport and RS owners’ clubs. It was subject to a full high-quality nut and bolt restoration which took over three years to complete. A testament to the quality of the work it remains in stunning condition today. It comes with a comprehensive history file .

Since its restoration this Escort TC has covered less than 4000 miles and comes with a comprehensive photographic record of the bare shell rebuild. Already being in good condition and a previous concurs show winner. The original body was totally stripped down to bare metal, prepared and repainted to as new condition. It did not require any new panels or even any major welding. Having spent its entire life in the Australian hot and dry climate.

Resprayed in ultra-white its original ford factory colour. The car was fully rebuilt mechanically. Finished to original specification using genuine old / new ford parts.

The result of the detailed, highly professional rebuild is a magnificent example with stunning bodywork, underside and engine bay. It has a delightful saddle period new interior trim from Aldridge and correct factory appearance.

Mechanically the car is excellent and drives superbly. A full set of new Michelin classic 185/ 70R13 tyres recently fitted.

September 2018 the cylinder head assembly was completely overhauled.

August 2019 Burton water pump kit fitted.

This Escort Twin Cam is an ideal enthusiast’s car that can be driven at any time. It comes with a comprehensive photographic history file.
