New to this forum, so thought I'd introduce my 1963 pre airflow Cortina. Bought as a very incomplete project with an engine beyond repair. 3 years of graft when time permitted and I'm pretty much there. Still needs correct seats and door panels but other than that....
Fitted with an Alfa 1750 gtv engine and box that I rebuilt as a spare then never used. It was sitting in the garage...so why not? Pretty much dropped straight in, with the dimensions being similar to a Lotus twink. Custom crossmember and gearbox mount. Handles like a Cortina, revs like a 1750. Until I can get a GT or Lotus engine in there, its a nice period swap... Great Forum, looking forward to some quality time here.
