the car is a 1964 mk1 cortina running a 1500cc motor with a gt manifold and a 32/36 webber, extractors and a way to loud exhaust.... standard 4 speed... and 16" fr Simmons (my old ones)

some of the SA guys would have seen this on a few of the recent cruises...

this is dans daily (when his not working and using his plumming van)his other project include a nuts V8 Capri that is a mint rolling shell at the moment, with mini tubs, 9", 4 speed loader, and hot boss 302. with a chassis kit and full autometer guages....
the car is in primier with a mint body sittn on convo pros... sorry no pics though as he wants it to be unvailed once finished....

that sits next to his freshly imported 69 428 cobra jet mustang.... like i said if your in SA there will be some cool cars coming from his shed in the next few years

just taken Rhys 2lt_scort for a fang 5 mins b4 these pics were taken

I like it! Goes well for such an old school car, with 1500 and all. I'd like to own it . If only 2door Cortinas weren't rare as hens teeth and in my price range...

Very cool car.

Thanks for the ride Glenn.

Superb car that looks as good in the flesh as it does in real life! - great example of what can be done with minor touches to an otherwise excellent Ford Design.

Anyone who owns these rare cars really know what they have....and are...well very cool people.

See my signature to know what I mean[;^)]
