Hiya

 

Have not been on for a while, so I thought I'd show you all my mk5 Cortina I bought last year to replace the old crusader I used to own.

Its a 1982 1600L that as been played with a bit.

its now a 2.1 with a kent FR22 cam, burton electronic distributer, Vernier pulley all lightened and balanced with a K&N filter. Have also got the twin dellortos waiting to go on when I have the time to fit up that were on the old car. It runs a type9 box with the 3.89 final drive. Fully polybushed front to back with lowered springs and adjustable gaz shocks all round on refurbed RS 4 spokes. would like to get them polished in time.

its got the geuine ford RS rear spoiler fitted and the carello spot lamps.Interior is full front and rear seats from a sapphire cosworth with crusader door trims and carpet. Dash is cortina Ghia/S with Nardi steering wheel.

car has been rebuilt and resprayed inside and out in ford arctic white instead of the original diamond white.

to be a bit different, and to break up the white, I fitted the mk4 cortina S stripes.

This car is my daily driver.

Pictures to follow shortly!
