stevie Posted January 4, 2010 Report Posted January 4, 2010 Hi Nice to join a site dedicated to the type of cars i drove as a teenager/20's lad every day. I have a Mk5 Cortina 1600GL auto which is totally standard apart from the wheels. I am currently seeking some steel wheels. My car is a 1982 Xreg in crystal green and it is in very good condition with 86k on the dial. Its not perfect but a couple of weekends will bring it round. I use it as much as possible even though its a second car. Theres hardly a day go by that its not used though, whatever the weather i drive it. Its what it was made for after all I look forward to chatting and sharing opinions and (in my case rather limited) knowledge with you and maybe i can learn a few tips regarding an engine change to something from a later Sierra/Granada. Any tips will be much appreciated. Enough of my yakking for now!!!

Admin Vista Posted January 5, 2010 Admin Report Posted January 5, 2010 Welcome to OSF, plenty of room in a Cortinas engine bay for engine swaps and we do have one or two Cortina experts resident on here.
stevie Posted January 5, 2010 Author Report Posted January 5, 2010 Thanks for the warm welcomes. Hopefully this snow will go away fairly quickly so i can get on with a few odds and ends on the car.
