A mate tripped across a MK2 4 door 420 sedan that has something like 30000 genuine miles on it.  all original down to the jack in the foam wheel well holder.  looks very nice no rust.  Guy wants about $6-7 thousand for it.  Is he dreaming or is there an interest in something like this at that money?  I can get a few pics and forward on interested parties numbers, PM me cheers JR

I think the price sounds pretty reasonable if its all ridgey didge, survivors like that are few and far between nowadays...
Hope it finds a good home Drew...

I'd jump at that MII Cortina & price, if I didn't already have 19 cars !...........
 
...........on another matter, I'm looking for Dad's old 1964
 
Mk1 White Consul/Cortina 440 that last had the regio number    HZL747  back in 1988 +or- a few
 
years or even if I can find the OHV engine (113E145714)  ............."money's no obstacle"
 
I know it's a  MILLION TO ONE SHOT, but after putting in a request like this on GUMTREE for A FULL SET OF GTV6 CAPRI BOOKS inc Owners manual and Maintenance manual and workshop Manual, all 3 GENUINE like Brand new, I'm now convinced NOTHING cannot be found on the WWW (sorry about the double negative)..............at the time of listing the Wanted Ad, I thought I was "nuts" wasting my time for something so so so so very very rare !!!!!!!!  ...well I was wrong! ...........hope dad's Consul/Cortina or engine shows up as well !
 
My mate has a 1964 Cortina without "Consul" and Emblem on Bonnet Hump and different dash Instrumentation (2 pod modern looking plus a flimsy little indicator arm with "push-in for horn" on the end, whereas Dads old 64 Consul/Cortina had a very industrial looking Combo arrangement of solid Bakelite with 2 big switches of Bakelite on RHS; one for lights and one for direction indicators, with a teardrop Bakelite switch at the end to push in for "horn" (sim to early Bedford or Commer Van), and its dash Instrumentation from memory was one wide Panel behind glass)....... ?

whats a year late ?...................
