Description

I drove past this car one morning parked on the side of the road. Just had to go back the next day with my camera for Andrea. Remember this one? Cheers, Clive

Is that the Mk 1 Cortina? I had a MK 2 1600 with crossflow head, I loved that car!! [LOL].

FABULOUS! in the words of Maurice Chevalier " Ah yes, I remember it well!" That's when one could tell cars apart at 500 yards. Thankyou Clive! My first car was a 1968 MkII Cortina Estate..I bought it with a piece of my pottery sculpture, a straight swop! It was already 10 years old at the time.

LOL... Just made me think of the old SA joke of the 123 people - 1 litre brandy, 2 litre coke and a 3 litre Cortina... Great capture Clive! :)

Not sold in the USA as I recall but wasn't it built by Ford? We were still in the giant car-gas hog days when this car was popular. Glad you returned for a taillight.

Just the right amount of car here. :) Great capture! I don't remember if I remember Cortinas or not. :P Probably not, as Bill says we didn't have them here! I'll take his word for it.
