If you guys know how big a Ford Cortina is,[1978],mid sized 2000cc 4 cylinder,well,Ford Australia produced those cars with that 250inch six in them..and a 200inch six,as well.The Cortina with that engine was cranking low 12s on the strip,I believe,in street trim.

The first model car I built was a 32 Ford roadster by Revell in the mid 50's.
How did you get hooked on cars?
