Are mk2 wagons rare? Semi rare?

Yeah Quite Rare, Mine is a factory GT theres only rumored to be 3-4 in the country.....

Is turquiose sorta green I was delivering some stuff I made in the alley way on lower dent street by the waterfront thats were I saw it. I asked the people I was delivering to who's it was they said eh dunno but its there all the time.

That Turquuiose one was for sale on TM last year, for $2g i think, its a 68 and number plate is ZA???? its got a 1600gt motor so would go well, i went to buy that one but missed out on it, was talking to the new owner, who said it is rust free and really good.

Methodz - the white sedan is still running its original 1600 and is still under 100,000 miles.... is soon to have a new motor with all the fruit..... Nic can you confirm this??

This probally is totally wrong, but they look like the ones I had in the back of my mk 1 capri?

I have no idea on early fords....

Capri ones are very similar, not as high back tho.....

When i purchased that sedan it was a $521 from Temuka, it was destined for the scrapper as it needed some rust repairs and some engine work. i spent $4g (inc buying the car) restoring it, the new owner has spent a further $5g on it, so it is a bloddy awesome car now....

Hi Methodz,

the back seats are out of a cortina GTE, the matching front seats are high back bucket seats. i will get you a pic of one tonight. if you put high back seats in you would need a centre console. they are a mission to find..... then again so are the seats.....

Hey Guys,

MRRX2U - Its down by some military/airforce base, we went down there cos the cops were stalking us.....

The wagon is a factory GT so its bloddy rear, i am not a big fan of the white, would quite like to do it a really dark green with a gold pinstripe and i have some gold minilites, im getting a really hot motor built for it. and gonna lower it a little as well.

the wagon is bloddy different, aftewr having over 10 mk2 sedans, its nice to have something different for a change...... the 2 door is next

i dont think the speedo works properly as was following a mate down the motorway and he was going 70mph in this mkk2 and mine was only saying 50mph... i stayed around 50-65mph on the way down, it was a bit slow but it made it. didnt have any issues what so ever. really stoked with the car. will get some pics in projects area this weekend.

The Wagon is Mine, and the Sedan used to be Mine..... oh the memories.....

i just drove a white mk2 wagon from auckland to christchurch this weekend just gone, which way did you go? staight down state highway one or down the west coast?

yeah ive got a fire extingusher in my GTE, just in case.......

not all mk3 crossflow boxes are close ratio, it was more near the end of production ford had all these 1300 crossflow motors and close ratio boxes left over...... with mk2s it depends if its a series one of series two car (66-68 ser1 and 69-70 ser2) the series1 has a singe rail box and the series2 has a 3rail box same as the close ratio found in late mk3s.....

best thing to do is check the model numbers against a parts book to see if its close ratio or not...

that burnt out mk2 looks like it has some good parts left on it...... if you need anything parts wise i have a fleet of mk2s...... may have things you need.....

Go to Agnew Bros on montreal street, they are the best in town by far..... warren there did the carpets in my GT..... job was a 10 out of 10 for a quality and profesional service.....

ive got a fair stash of bits for mk2s, i think i can find you a GT diff thats 3.9 ratio instead of the 4.1 it will have, also should be able to find a radiator and some other odds and ends if you give me a list i will check for you.... also i will be in welly early next month bringing my latest purchase down from auckland (GT Wagon).... would be keen to see this beast.....

the colour suits it quite well, looking at that badge on the boot it looks like a 1300, it may have the wrong tapet cover on it, if you can post the engine number i can de-code it for you...... the turbos suit it quite well, when i get my mk2 wagon down to chch it will be getting wide turbos on it........

awesome car man!!!

my cortina gte just has standard 1300cc non GT pistons, that with a mild cam webber carb and free flow exhaust(factory) gives heaps more go go.......

Blue one is for sale as we are moving and have no garage for it.... one on the left was sooo cheap and it looks awesome with its primered front end and red oxide on the roof.... yeha has the louvers and the sun roof..... will hopefully get it back on the road and paint it up.....

Its a 3 car garage, but since i have so many cortyz i can squeeze 4 in there....... unfortunately we are moving soon so its down to a 2 car hopefully KT83 is sold, and the other one is going back out to the farm....

Yes LOWMK2 i do have the mk2 wagon i will be going up to auckz in the next month to get it

This was an 81GL.......
