I'm sure there is one on carsales.com.au at the moment. Pretty average condition though...

Don't think they come much cheaper... I know you're after a manual, but thet aren't too hard to change over (in the long comments it says 4 speed????)....apparently

Depending what that one looks like, its a pretty good deal. You WONT find a clean and running RS for any less. Auto's are the ones you want anyway. Rip it out and chuck in a sierra 5 speed! No tunnel mods!
Also try this site http://classicford.mine.nu/forum/default.asp Cheers, Aussie_Escort |
