Rod, I have been lucky and haven't had to fix much, the engine is the same as the 2.0 Capri so parts for the engine are available. Some things like the exterior handles are the same as the Capri II. Some trim bits are rare but eBay has been great!! The car is all original except for a couple areas p...

MK3 Cortina Radiator

My radiator is leaking and was looking for advice.
Is it better to have a radiator of this vintage repaired or better to buy a new one?
Any idea if the radiator from a capri of the same year would fit the 72 cortina?
Thanks.....Phill

Well I never saw the new cortina. The seller quit corresponding with me. I can only assume when it hit BAT he got offered more money!! Kind of a bummer, the search continues!!

I see its now on BAT. I havnt heard from the seller since Monday so I hope we still have a deal. He sent me pictures and claims the only rust is in the rockers. The trunk looks very solid. He also said the engine turns by hand so its not frozen. Its always scary to buy something from photos but the ...

I will add the craigslist link but dont know how long the ad will be their.... http://springfield.craigslis...

My Cortina is in Hemmings Sports and Exotic, March issue

My cortina is in the march issue of Hemmings Sports and Exotic magazine. Its one of my favorite magazines and I sent some pictures to them a few months back and they published them in the "In your garage" section.

I went to see the anglia today. It is in very good condition for its age. It does have some rust on the right rear down low and on the side of the right fender. The floor pan was amazingly solid. The rear floor is wood and in good shape. It ran very well, the engine was rebuilt by KIP some years bac...
