1969 FORD TAUNUS 20M RS

This 1969 Ford 20M RS is a German-built coupe with 69,816 actual kilometers (43,381 miles). This one-year-only model was imported to the U.S. by its original owner when he was transferred back to the states while serving in the military when the car was approximately two years old. In 2018 it was refinished in red with black stripes over a new leather interior in a matching two-tone color scheme. Power is provided by its original 2.3-liter V6 engine mated to a 4-speed manual transmission routing power to the rear wheels via a 3.70:1 rear end with limited-slip differential. The car is equipped with a factory sunroof, console with a Rallye gauge cluster and dual exhaust outlets. Exterior features include twin black racing stripes, black pinstriping along the sides, and chrome bumpers and trim. The black grille assembly features integrated fog and Rallye lamps. Stamped 14-inch polished wheels with black centers are wrapped in 195/70 Maxxis MA-701 tires that were installed in the fall of 2020. The brakes have been serviced as well. The front bucket seats and rear bench have been reupholstered in two-tone black and red leather with matching door panels over black carpeting and a two-tone dashboard. A wood-grain shift knob and original wood steering wheel are still present. Additional features include an AM/FM radio and lap belts all around. The wood-rimmed steering wheel fronts instrumentation, including a 230 km/h speedometer and an 8,000 rpm tachometer, and factory auxiliary gauges are located in the center stack. The odometer on this vehicle reads in kilometers; however, the title reads in miles. **SOME STATES ISSUE 'MILEAGE EXEMPT' TITLES AFTER 10 YEARS - THIS CONSIGNOR REPRESENTS AND THE CURRENT TITLE REFLECTS 'ACTUAL MILEAGE'**
