This Tuesday the 20th of September will mark 60 years since the release of the Cortina.
The nameplate spanned 5 different marks over 20 years. Engines were available from a 1200cc four to a 4.1 litre six and everything else in between with countless trim levels and variations available worldwide. Australia had it fair share of models with the standouts for me being the Mk1 GT500, Fords first attempt and a successful one at that building a Bathurst homologation vehicle. Lets not forget the TD XLE either, a full fat luxury barge with a mighty 4.1L thrown in six for good measure. I'll be firing my TD up on Tuesday for some nostalgia, anyone else care to reminisce?
