lol had to be done ,i think i got it cheapish ,yours look very nice

 

cool ,i think i want to do a v8 in this dont think i want to go down the cossy route as i might get too carried away

 

Don't look like that anymoremainly a pile of bits

V8 would be a great idea but please use a ford engine not a rover

Paul

 

nothing wrong with a rover v8 my bmw has a 3.9 v8 and the other has a 5.0 twin turbo but was thinking about a ford 302

 

that saph looks awsome!
good on ya for going old skool though takes some guts lol

 

Done anything with it yet?

Paul

 

yeah................moved it to my mate drive way , just havent had the time

 

allways loved this shape cortina,i remember when iwas a kid my uncle had a yellow one

 

ace car.... but keep it black, don't see many black early cortina's

 

with a cortina like that, you will be cured from your BMW illness
