HOLDING DEPOSIT TAKEN - Ford Cortina Mk2 2dr Body shell & Lotus TwinCam Engine

What do we have here- it’s an Mk2 Ford Cortina 2dr rolling body shell which has been masterly restored to perfection some years ago.  The shell is perfect throughout with new floors and sills.  It comes with a copy 1968 Cortina Twincam V5c logbook, HPI report STATING ITS’ A “Lotus” and VIN. 

The underside is perfect and coated in Raptor, a very hard-resistant under seal.  The suspension has been restored and powder coated, plus all brakes are refurbished and present.  The shell comes with steel bonnet, doors and boot lid, plus front and rear windscreens.  The car steers and is ready for a paint job of your choice, although the copy Lotus Twincam logbook states it was “silver”. 

The seats are new vinyl and there are boxes and boxes of spare parts.  The photos give you an indication of most of what comes with the car. 

Best of all, a professionally reconditioned 1558cc Cortina Twincam motor comes with the deal, complete with twin 40 Webber carburettors (not pictured). 

This could be a wonderful project.  I am truly sad to see it go, but many other expensive projects have almost bankrupted me… you know how petrol heads are?  If they spot a bargain, they have to have it, to add to the growing list of motoring projects!  

Please call Andrew on 07759751320 for further details.

The Cortina can be viewed in Melksham, Wiltshire.   

Note- I am 99% sure  I can furnish a Ford Rocket four speed gearbox, but it is stored at another location in Surrey and will need to be collected from postcode RH5.
