fairlane500 Posted October 14, 2006 Report Posted October 14, 2006 Hi folks. Just picked up my first ever copy of Retro Ford and spotted this site across the screen of a very tasty white Mk 2 Cortina and thought I had better have a look. Anyway my name is Sean and I have had loads of old cars over the years but my latest is I think my favorite so far.She is a 1958 100e Prefect fitted with a 1500gt pre-crossflow,Classic/Capri front struts,105e gearbox and axle and Rostyle wheels.Structure and oily bits seem pretty good but she is a bit tatty,worst bit being the rear doors(anyone got a good pair going?). So I will try and stick a pic up but I am not great with computers so fingers crossed. Sean.
antz Posted October 14, 2006 Report Posted October 14, 2006 love it!!!! and welcome to the site stick a post in the WANTED section fro some rear doors. you never know what people have lying around.

ZetecVan 2.0 Posted October 14, 2006 Report Posted October 14, 2006 Welcome to the site. I love 100Es. I had an original 107E a few years ago. Very nice.
mk14dr Posted October 14, 2006 Report Posted October 14, 2006 tasty m8. i'd love that one in the forsale section with a pinto in . low as you like, proper sleeper
fairlane500 Posted October 14, 2006 Author Report Posted October 14, 2006 Thanks for the welcome guys. Glad you like the car.I love it to bits. I'm not sure which way to take it yet but as it hs no trim and no interior to speak of stripped out seems the way to go. Any expert opinions welcome though Sean.
Admin Mk2Jo Posted October 16, 2006 Admin Report Posted October 16, 2006 Hello Sean and welcome to OSF Nice 100e mate - look forward to seeing your progress with it
fairlane500 Posted October 16, 2006 Author Report Posted October 16, 2006 Cheers all.What a welcome When I get chance to take a few pics.I'll stick something up in the resto section,so everyone can keep up with my lack of progress Trouble is she's such a hoot to thrash about it seems a shame to take her of the road so it will be a rolling resto job. Sean.
