Very nice! I'm sure it is a great feeling to be able to drive it in and out of the shop now! Plus actually get it out and make the turbo do work!Ryan

with all the work that went in to this last year I have had a bit of a break from it, but im now back on it.
after driving it last year there had to be a few changes and some stuff I was not happy with so over the last couple of weeks I have been trying to address the issues. it,s in the stage of going back together so I will put some pics on later this week to see what you think.wanna be a proper hot rodder.

...and you've got it parked between a Bradford (why?) and a Jeep...(why?)
(At least it's an ohv Jeep; not a flat-head! But talk about one extreme to the other!)
You would have been better placed alongside the Sunliner.
That Cortina is a credit to you; it's bloody gorgeous!johnboy
