very nice, the colour and the mini lites give it the perfect stance

yeah im gonna put the cortina in the display area on saturday... im sure i will see some of you there

pm'd

just try and find another bonnet mate have you asked karl that you got the car off hes a cortina guy? bonnets are one of the hardest things to get hold off as they all rusted out years ago...

some inspiration for your new paint job edit: minus that fugly black back panel of course

well i found the project thread for this POS on page 14, finally dragged it home with the intention of getting it road legal again, on closer inspection its gonna need a fair bit of rust work as you can see, but im looking forward to getting some work done on it finally

sounds like a good idea... keen

also a big ups to Andrew (Hunted) for getting a meet sorted ... well done

yeah awesome photos, the rest of the meet looked awesome, next time i will bring a car that wont crap out

it was good to catch up with everyone again... sadly the gearbox in the hunter didnt like the trip up the hill out of sumner and is probably on its last legs... ahh well more work to do

was 10am last time

sent u a pm, hope you dont mind andrew

I guess being the alloy head motor they have more power and are a bit quieter other than that I dont know the differences/advantages sorry

I still have to go down to the shed and find those 1 inch blocks for you, should be down at the shed this weekend

how does $150 for a motor with all the bits carb/dizzy/alternator/mounts etc sound?

yep both are from hunters, one is from a 77 and one from a 74. i do also have a complete 67 hunter with an alloy head motor too

i have 2x alloy head motors here in chch, ones in the shed, has been going and the other one is still complete and in the car... get in touch if you want to come and have a look. cheers Karl

i will be there in either the hunter or the mk2 cortina

were you running the alloy or cast head motor?

i have some hunter bits and pieces here if you need anything, a couple of 1725cc alloy head motors and a set of twin carbs/with rebuild kits with the mainifolds/linkages etc. was thinking of putting them on the hunter but could be persuaded to part with them cheers Karl

wheels were 15x8 according to the guy i got the car off, hence why those guards have such heavy rolling on them, but yeah overall pretty bad, recon it looks way better now

also here are a few pics of it in 2002 when it lived in dunedin... at the monster tacho and rear spoiler

they would even look good with a silver/grey centre? and a polished rim. not a fan of black centres, recon it hides the detail of the rims if you know what i mean...

rims in wellington will look will look better on the cortina than the ones from invercargill

yeah all good, should have a hunter or a cortina i can bring along
