The second Blue car was a unfinished project and needed much more work but is there now all but for a re paint and the engine needs putting back together has a fast road cam stage two head light weight flywheel for a Lotus 1650cc
Afternoon all, I’ve been a member for a while but never really used the site. Let me introduce myself.
My names Ben (Bennit_95) owner of the a 66 Mk1 cortina GT. She’s a dear old girl who will hopefully(work allows) get the use she deserves this year.
Hope all have had good festive period/holidays season.
regards

My old Capri White Heat I paid £500 for it in bits and still in that Mauve color I had it painted White again, sold it on in the mid 80s by then it had become as fashionable as a pair of flared trousers. If I had it now I would put it back to standard as it was a 3000 GT XLR not many of them made and the Dealer at Luton had modified it slightly Lumo cars fetch good money now like the Broadspeed of their day
