Mk2 Cortina 1600E - What's it worth

[Tom]

As above really, I may be getting my hands on a H plate, 2 owner 1600E in silver.

 

Its a very good car - not mint but solid only really needing a tidy and a o/s/r lower arch repair. The chassis rails are undersealed and still shiney paint underneath!

A real 70's boy racer with big rear tyres and skinny fronts, black/purple tinted windows and a hot little x-flow.

 

Any ideas what these should go for roughly?

the prices for 1600e's vary vastly could be anything between £1500 for one thats a bit ropey to £5000+ for a mint concours one depending on how good bad they are

[Tom]

Yeah thats what i'm trying to figure out.

 

What constitutes 'a bit ropey' mate?

[GT_lenny]

tired looking but solid and mot-able, i'd be looking for one with good inner wings and floors etc needing just a few minor bits of plating , some paint work and interior fettling for that sort of money , just my opinion though

for a presentable 1600e with not a lot of welding needed I would say about 2.5 - 3k just my opinion, I paid 1800 for a very solid 1600 super with poorish paint 18mounths ago but Es worth a lot more

hope that helps
