The only factory options you could get on the RS2000 were...

- AM Radio/Stereo Cassette
- Tinted-band, laminated windscreen
- 'Volante' sports alloy road wheels
- 3-speed T-bar Automatic (in 1979)

My 79 RS is a factory auto,had volantes,tinted screen and a radio,so you could say at the time she was fully loaded yes they are rare!!!!
there are a few guys on this site and the classicford site with autos or were anyway.

Ford dont seem to know how many they made according to the discovery centre
