Ford Capri RS2600 Group 2

The Ford Capri RS 2600 is an iconic model that bridges the gap between high performance road cars and competitive touring machines. Originally a road going vehicle, it became a platform for motorsport enthusiasts seeking to emulate the pace, handling, and engineering of works level race cars. Classics by Century carried out a complete restoration, transforming the car from its original road going specification into a genuine Group 2 race car. The rebuild began with a full strip down to a bare shell. Every panel, bracket, and structural component was assessed, restored, or replaced as needed, ensuring a solid foundation for both safety and performance. The suspension was completely redesigned and uprated from road car specification to full Group 2 race car specification, delivering authentic period correct performance, optimised to achieve the precise handling characteristics necessary for competitive driving. Every component of the chassis and drivetrain was inspected and reinforced, ensuring the car could handle the stresses of track use while maintaining authenticity. Externally, the bodywork and livery were restored with attention to detail, finishing touches were carefully applied to faithfully replicate the race ready appearance of a works car. Inside the cockpit, the dash was completely rebuilt, combining style with functional precision, while all interior elements were restored or fabricated as required to complete the racing transformation. The result is a fully realised Ford RS 2600 Group 2 race car, rebuilt from a neglected road car into a majestic machine. Every aspect of the car reflects the craftsmanship, engineering expertise, and dedication to authenticity that Classics by Century brings to every project, ensuring that this RS 2600 not only looks the part but is ready to perform at the highest level.
