WHEN THE RESTORATION STARTED DAVID & CHRIS WANTED TO COMPLETE THIS CORTINA GT TO THE HIGHEST STANDARDS POSSIBLE AND GREAT ATTENTION TO DETAIL WAS OF UPMOST IMPORTANCE MAKING THIS ONE OF THE BEST AVAILABLE AT THE TIME AND MANY ORIGINAL N. O. S OR NEW ITEMS WERE SOURCHED WHERE POSSIBLE AND EVEYTHING ON THIS CAR WAS EITHER NEW OR REFURBISHED AND COST A FORTUNE AT THE TIME TO COMPLETE
THE BODYSHELL IS STUNNING WITH EXCELLENT PANEL GAPS IN OUR OPINION (WE ARE BIG CORTINA/ LOTUS CORTINA ENTHUSIASTS & COLLECTORS!!)

TO BUY AN ORIGINAL CORTINA GT TODAY FOR RESTORATION AND RESTORE IT TO THIS STANDARD WOULD COST YOU IN EXCESS OF £40, 000+++ IN TODAYS MARKET HENCE THIS CAR OFFERS FANTASTIC VALUE FOR MONEY!!!
THIS CAR HAS BEEN OWNED & DRY STORED BY A MATURE MECHANICAL ENGINEER GENTLEMAN OWNER IN HIS OWN COLLECTION SINCE THE RESTORATION WAS COMPLETED FOR THE LAST 7+ YEARS WHO ONLY CAREFULLY USED IN DRY WEATHER AND HAS WAXOILED THE UNDERSIDE OF THE CAR FOR ITS PROTECTION (WE DO HAVE PICTURES SHOWING THE QUALITY OF WORKMANSHIP DURING THE RESTORATION!!!)
THIS REALLY IS A BEAUTIFUL EXAMPLE OF A VERY RARE CORTINA GT COMPLETE WITH ORIGINAL GT FEATURES RARELY OFFERED FOR SALE THESE DAYS WITHIN THIS PRICE BRACKET!!
IN OUR OPINION WE WOULD LOWER THIS CAR AND FIT FRONT 1/ 4 BUMPERS WHICH WOULD REALLY FINISH THIS CAR OFF AND WOULD ONLY TAKE A FEW HOURS TO COMPLETE AND YOU WOULD THEN HAVE A £30K CAR!!!!
AS THE PICTURES SHOW THIS CORTINA REMAINS IN LOVELY CONDITION THROUGHOUT (A COUPLE OF TINY TINY STORAGE MARKS BUT WE ARE BEING ULTRA CRITICAL AND ARE CONFIDENT THAT THE FIRST GENUINE BUYER WILL SNAP IT UP!!!)
THIS CAR STARTS, STOPS AND MOVES AS YOU WOULD EXPECT AND HAS JUST BEEN RELEASED FROM STORAGE HENCE WE WOULD ADVISE THE NEW OWNER TO SERVICE THE CAR (OIL CRYSTAL CLEAR AND HAS BEEN VERY WELL LOOKED AFTER!!) BUT WOULD BENEFIT FROM A LIGHT RECOMMISSIONING!!!
