hi ive ot a mk5 cortina uts actually 1982 is it ok to post about it on here?

its a 1.6 crusader but not original at all its my fast road/track car

 

ello an welcome, yh post on here all u like, it is the old school forum lol
get some pics up

 

Hi mate i just joined myself after looking at loads of others and this one seems to be the best!!!!!!

 

 

Have you do all the work yourself....

 

yeah it used to look like this but i just cant leave things alone lol





it didnt look as good as the photos make out the paint job was poor and front wings rotten

new wings now but paint job still poor as its piss can

roof is rollered

but i like it, and it doesnt matter where i park it etc because a quick touch up of piss can touches up any scratches by careless or jealous people etc

 

oh and its 2.0 now not 1.6

 

You have put alot of work into it.... i wish i could but im not very good with cars.. but with my new toy i will have to learn

 

ive done more since these pics were taken

i now have a old style burton alloy rocker cover.

its the big cossie style wheels i use not the 13 inch pepper pots shown in some pics.

all door cards are black fluff lol and so is rear seat.

the numb rear boot spoiler was a granada one but as seen in other pics i now have a proper cortina boot spoiler.

 

lol when i first started thinking about what to do to the inside i was thinking... shag pile carpet the lot but now im thinking red carpet with dash and doors etc... in white leather with red stitching... but that is a long way off... first i just want to get everything else sorted as no one really sees the inside...

 

whats your car?

 

I cant put pics on a thread but if you goto my profile you will see a pic of my... what i think is a gorgeous Mk4 Escort XR3i cab....

 

oh yeah that is nice

i had similar wheels on my cortina at one time
