HotRodMatt Posted December 29, 2017 Report Posted December 29, 2017 This may already be on here but worth putting on again.
gtrjazz Posted January 1, 2018 Report Posted January 1, 2018 Cortina MK2 Savage from the Cortina site 1 1
stephens_xpack Posted January 2, 2018 Report Posted January 2, 2018 Wow, that Cortina is awful...front spoiler has a bit of snow plough about it.
stephens_xpack Posted January 2, 2018 Report Posted January 2, 2018 The more I look at that poor Tina, the more I just wonder why? The headlights have no surrounds, the snow plough front, the Super Bird attempted rear wing. It must have cost a real lot of money, time and effort to completely ruin that car.
khanlad Posted January 2, 2018 Report Posted January 2, 2018 I think why would be a question asked about most if not all the cars in this thread?

I wonder if that actually netted them any extra revenue. Anyway, the Seventies called, they want their van back I think you will find that a "w" reg is 1980 / 81 not seventies ........ lol

How would you get out of the car at a show with people watching on I would need a pre dug tunnel to park over and a hatch in the floor

All it needs an 8 track with Showaddywaddy cassette to complete the scene.

HotRodMatt Posted January 6, 2018 Report Posted January 6, 2018 Mk1 Escort? Not seen some TSW Venoms for a long time!!
Xp197777 Posted January 6, 2018 Report Posted January 6, 2018 Looks vaguely like a corvette but it’s probably a tr7 or a Porsche 924 or944
HotRodMatt Posted January 6, 2018 Report Posted January 6, 2018 Registered as a Lightning TS kit car but Ford based I reckon.
Admin Vista Posted January 6, 2018 Author Admin Report Posted January 6, 2018 It's a Cortina based kit car 1
