mk2sav 42 Posted November 10, 2018 Is this one of the cars that was used for a test of the Mk3 colourhttps://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/ford-cortina-mk2/253973990849?hash=item3b22078dc1:g:kXsAAOSwLSZb5qVHs - looks like sapphire blue ? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Lotuscops 80 Posted November 11, 2018 Didn't they respray a lot of the MK2's that had Blue Mink, Silver Fox, Light Orchid etc paint issues with primer adhesion? A friend of mine chose Maize Yellow (Mk3) to have his 1600E resprayed under Warranty back in 1971. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
G.O 20 Posted November 12, 2018 Yup, that's sapphire Steve. There was a run of late MkIIs where Ford appear to have been testing out MkII colours. We know of a few, all on DYT ***J no plates. Theres another sapphire one, and one in Sunburst Red (I think!!!) that we know are definitely around Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
