They don’t make them like that anymore

Yes I liked the shape, I also wanted to get into a TE wagon, but they were hard to find a good one for the cost though, and harder to find with a 4.1 donk, a mate had a 4.1 TE Ghia with the factory sunroof (I reckon these were rare) it leaked and he sealed it silastic

I think the TF was the best looking ,expecially the last ones .
And I preferred the sedans to the wagons.
In South Africa we had the Ute as well

Hi , I have had 3 Mk1 Cortinas all race cars.

Firstly a very rare genuine 1963/4 2 door Aussie GT with all the right chrome strips etc. This car is still racing and is for sale - the current driver has retired.

Second a 1964 Lotus Twin cam replica. Also been racing until very recently and is now in the hands of another Cortina racer undergoing a complete restoration.

The third one a 1964 flow thru 2 Door GT I still have and its undergoing a refresh after being in storage for 15yrs.

Hope you like the Pics .Sorry could not get the 3rd one on will try seperate post see if that works.

Well here it is a photo of the 3rd Gt Cortina Mk1 Race Car.
I raced this car in the 90's. It was in storage for over 25 yrs and has just been refreshed and repainted in its original colors.
Just getting back into it slowly by doing some of the Vic. Hillclimb Championship Events and Phillip Is Classic in March.
