    MK1 Cortina 2door GT Airflow.

    With a Heavy heart I am thinking of putting my project up for sale.
    Mk1 2 door Airflow Mk1 cortina GT Shell has had completely refurbished with:
    New inner and outer sills
    New floors
    Mint doors
    2 excellent metal wings
    New bonnet excellent boot.
    Genuine GT car in primer.
    I have everything to put this car back in the road glass quarter bumpers.
    Complete GT trim and all GT Clocks..
    Mint rebuilt 2000e bullet gearbox with proper lotus gear lever and correct center console.
    Big header tank Mk1 rad.
    Two 7” banded steels. 2 6” banded Steels not been in road since refurbishment with tyres. New rear and rear quarter GT badges.
    Les Leston steering wheel.
    Powder coated axle, tramp bars, and escort crossmember, (rack conversion)
    3:77 diff
    WPE (oringinal Anglia engine) lotus blocked 1760 pre cross flow screamer.
    With new Weber twin 45’s on Powdercoated derrington port matches manifold,
    Bespoke big wing wing sump,
    4:1 mass manifold.
    New Dizzy with correct advance curve(Checked and refreshed by Wayne) new clutch and refaced flywheel.
    New from Gaz golds fronts and Gaz rear shocks.
    New V5 in my name.
    Lucky enough to have a 2002Tii that I’m going turbo power with now and can see me finishing this first but need funds for engine and paint work. Cortina Will need prep and painting and £10k will buy the lot with 100’s of spare. Will need back bumper and headlining have the old one with bars) new brake and fuel lines.
    Have loads of pictures that I can email or share 07950599568

    I can’t store it Mark, and have the new car to store and that needs funds for work I want to do.
    Also spent the money I had to paint this to buy the 2002. Wanted it for years and I have got it now have it up and running. Got one person who wants the running gear and fella wants the car. So if they can raise the funds it will go.

    Gutted mate - thinking of selling mine also - been down Trev's probably 10 years now and still not touched - kinda losing interest to be honest.

    oh i know that one, i spend about 80 hours a week working, but still cant get everything done. Even when the workshop is actually quiet, keeping 4 other guys sorted and attending to customers and suppliers means it can take me days to get around to doing the most simple jobs

    So I have purchased my BMW, I do have someone interested in the car with everything, but he is away. Once he has looked at it if he don’t have it will consider selling rolling shell with all parts as I have someone who wants the Running gear.

    Ready now for its new owner to choose a colour to paint it. Although with what’s going on it may go into storage.
