Heres my Ford Cortina MkV, said a few times I was going to post pictures, finally got around go pulling it out of the garage!
Its going up for sale soon, not sure what price to be looking for - any ideas??
Hope you like!
N.b. Sorry about the underside pics, not had chance to get underneath today, but as you can see, still clean! Easy to make it look spic and span

Its had a full nut and bolt reabuild and garaged ever since. Ive owned it 4/5 years, it was a friend of mine who did the rebuild, cost him a small fortune!
Ive just run it to shows and kept it generally tidy, changed a few bits here and there!

Don't sell it though mate! You'll only regret it.
Or at least don't sell it till I can afford to buy it!!

Ive thought about it for a while, I dont get enough use out of it and ill be out of the country soon, so will get used even less and i could do with the money.
Anyone want to have a guess at how much Ill be asking??

My Dad had a green 2.0 GL when we were younger, twin choke carb and 98bhp
My brother poured neat washing liquid on it so my dad fitted a steel fabiracted body kit that he made himself and had it resprayed blue. Looked pretty good at the time!

Well, i guess you could ask anywhere from £1600...

to £4500

I think £3.5k - £4k will get it sold if you find the right buyer.

Looking at the one for £4500, id rate mine better! But then again depends what your looking for, mine is factory in the sense that it uses all original parts, all be it new parts, wehres that one is actually original...........its got a v good response on the cortina websites!

I hope you find someone who's willing to pay what you want, and someone who will look after it.
It is a crackin example, so i'm sure you will.

My mate had one of these in about 93/94, got us about but it was a bit shameful at the time, he eventually scrapped it because he couldn't sell it, got about £20 I think.
Would have been worth grands now. That's a nice example and probably appreciating in value the longer you keep it like that. Madness.

As Ian mentioned Charles, £20 quid is about the going rate. Im feeling generous though so i'll stretch to £25 if you can drop it off. I look forward to hearing from you.
