I am trying to figure out where the other Mark Dall'Acqua built Escorts now reside, and if they still exist.
I know that Mark has two of the them -- the red and green ones. I know a white one with a sunroof is now turbocharged and currently for sale. Does anyone know about any others?

Well another one may have a toploader and a sunroof, it was featured in Performance Street Car in this spec in the late 1980s, but this may also be the one I know about with a turbocharger.

I like to know what the original colour of the green one was?
Rs2000s came in mainly red, white and yellow but also came in orange, midnight blue and a few in black....silver was a rare factory colour too. Can anyone ask Mark? |
