consul315 172 Posted February 22, 2021 should look like this one then? 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
johnny boy 159 Posted February 22, 2021 I think so, I just parked it up, and covered it over. A quick look over, it needs a black interior door pull handle, a dynamo and reg box, and 2 wiper spindle Ferrel's , and one arm. It has been laid up in Sweden for some time , and I guess some parts have been taken off. Pictures soon.😀 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

johnny boy 159 Posted February 28, 2021 I'd like to build it, as I have quite a few parts left over from my MK1 build ....... But I'm not sure I have the time for a full build. I think I'm more likely to get it registered, driving recommissioned. Then use it a bit , and sell it on to someone else to enjoy next year. I have to see how busy I am. 😄 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Yes , thanks, I wasn't looking for anything , and just sort of came across it looking for some MK1 Cortina stuff. And it looked like a bit of me, And it was reasonable money. So I bought it.😁 I'll enjoy recomissioning it, if I don't build it, and if I sell it next year , it's another one saved.😀 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

johnny boy 159 Posted March 19, 2021 I had to uncover it today, as DVLA wanted photo's of the complete car, chassis number stamping, and chassis plate location, and chassis plate, to complete the registration process. So I took a picture at the same time 😄 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
