Happy 32nd Birthday to my RS!

 
Must be some kind of a record for an Escort.
 
My brand new RS2000 was delivered at 4pm Friday May 9, 1980 by Thomson Ford Parramatta to an anxious 17 year old youngster who had not slept in two weeks while waiting for the delivery. Looking back at it this was a life changing moment when it arrived.
 
Thirty two years and 44,000km later and I still own the car.

    Photos as requested.
    Photos taken in June 1980. RS had approx 500km on clock.
    The photos are scanned from colour slides so there is a little dust on the slides in places.
