brightorangeGT 1 Posted January 19, 2014 Hello all - My Mk5 Cortina is still up for sale, although a couple days ago, I thought of keeping it and started enquiring about a front scuttle panel, and other bits and pieces, inspired by an article on Buysell. of a Mk5 like mine with a Mondeo engine in it....Then, again, I came back down to Earth and realised as before, I've got nowhere where I can do this work. I then poked around to find how big the holes are (inside rear o/s door and bottom of o/s rear sill and front subframe - this needed for MOT in April if I were to keep it)and decided I have to reduce my asking price, because the sills have been repaired in the past, and look a bit unsightly, so the O/S one probably needs replacing instead of patching up the 1-2 inch hole that I discovered. I tried uploading photos but seem to be having problem with photobucket not accepting my password...I thought I would advertise it again on here before Ebay, as a couple of you had expressed an interest in it as a project - which would be great. As I had big plans for it myself. It drives ok, but the front can be a little wayward in cross winds which is why I planned to replace the front springs with new gas shocks, as are on the rear. Its biggest issue is the scuttle panel, and I had been thinking (if I kept it and couldnt find replacement) of cutting it out , getting it repaired, then welding it back in. Ok so its £600 ovno - Taxed and Mot'd and should drive anywhere.Chris. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
