diff Posted January 8, 2010 Report Posted January 8, 2010 I've had old fords since I started driving .One of my first was a mk2 cortina which I still have now. Started with a crossflow , then Pinto powered for 14 years , now sitting engineless waiting for turbo power. This is how she looked just before engine removal. May be recognised as been in a few mags , Performance Ford,Classic Ford, Retro Ford and M#x P#w~r. Also had a mk1 Consul for a few years . Bought with a 350 chevy engine. Just needed paint and trim really. Sold it because the cortina was not being used. Was also subject to a Classic Ford feature.
diff Posted January 8, 2010 Author Report Posted January 8, 2010 Current daily driver is a mk5 cortina carousel. Bought of ebay last year pretty much standard apart from laser 4 spokes. Now sits lower and the 4 spokes have been polished. Only got 60,000on the clock so reluctant to mess too much but will probably get a zetec later. And with her older brother
