    Original 2.7 RS

    Looking for photos of original, untouched RS. Preferably original paint. Surely there must be an iconic, quintessential, virgin RS out there? Like the 700 mile 70 S car?
    Searched and got Butkus.

    Any help would be appreciated. If you have a very original car I would love to talk with you.

    Thanks.

    That car had some bling added as Brian said.
    The best example that I have ever seen is a white/blue Italian touring that has not had any work.
    I'll see if I can find any photos.

    I think this is the car Harvey is talking about Frank.....

    As my mechanic told me years ago when doing a major service and general check over on this car....
    "Unlike almost any other car, the deeper I got into this car the better and totally untouched it was... it was crazy"

    He said the back of the tail light assemblies (notorious for building up filth) was like it just rolled off the line.......
