Default mk1 cortina yb cosworth

Hi fellas thought id put up some pics of my project as Ive had some good info from you guys on here and it only seems good manners its a 1966 mk1 2 door cortina which I bought last year as a rolling shell. Plan is to probably tub the rear end, cosworth yb turbo for gogo as stock looking as possible and only ford bits allowed !
Shell seems pretty solid,it already has a steering rack conversion and a pinto fitted, needs a few pieces of welding done and a lot of strengthening. I bought a yb just before christmas which Ive been working away on. Just needs the usual suspects doing (i hope!!) camshaft oil seals lots of gaskets turbo rebuild , good clean up and lots of powder coating! More engine pics to follow at weekend
