    Mk1 Cortina 2 Door GT

    Well I have been busy building a mk1 cortina I bought off a fellow Turbosporr member and been a slow work in progress. Will be making it a standard looking car on lotus steels, full trim. And managed to get a lovely Lotus blocked pre crossflow screamer. IMG_5298.JPG

    So the shell is now ready for prep and paint, engine built, 2000e gearbox rebuilt. 6” and 7” steels.
    Unsure of colour but thinking Nardo Grey with red or black GT trim. Full interior road car. Just need to save up to get it painted ready for next year.

    No see here either! I think its a phone thing as I only access this site on a laptop / PC - neither show these pictures bar the first one of the engine!
