The car is almost an exact rally replica of the RS1700T and was built by a ford enthusiast and ford motorsport technician to almost exact rally spec using only genuine ford parts and pannels

so they are.

but still, that doesn't make up for it.

headlights are wrong too, proper 1700Ts had recessed ones, not a bolt on conversion.

Well, he does say replica in the ad, so he's probably covered

Title and most of the rest would make you think it was real though, if you didn't know about them...
