New wheels . Bought these off here a while ago , thought it was a set of 6x13 but happily found out its a pair of 6's and a pair of 7's. As bought. Jo paint stripped them, bit of wet and dry , polish and paint and a set of 185/60's and this is the result. Lots better than the escort 15's , and they don't rub.

Not been a lot happening recently with my daughter arriving . Still used as my daily with the addition of rear seatbelts . Unfortunately someone ran a key down the n/s recently and due to small rust bubble on the n/s wing I thought might as well get the the paint work sorted . Spoke to Loon off here and he is painting the top half from mouldings upwards . Just need to change the wing and strip stuff off . Pics will follow later (see what is left under the wing and see how solid she realy is ).

Looking good on the Revo's diff and congrats on the new arrival. Cortinas are great family cars once you have rear belts Good luck with the front wing, small patch of rust you say...

Wing was bubbling at the front and a strange rust stain at the back , removed it and found the mounting flange at the back was non existant .Suprisingly only a small inch square hole in the toe board and a bit missing above the head lamp . New wing on , bumpers off , door mouldings off, and handles removed . just a good scrub to get any wax off and she goes to the paint shop for a while .

Great job with the new wheels, the Escort ones were really too modern for it and didn't fit IMHO!

My dads last ever car was a Mk4 Cortina (a Crusader I think?) and he always had Fords. In fact, he did have a Mk1 Golf and an Audi 100 but went back to the Cortina before he died. He would have loved to see how people are now saving them and consider them to be cars worth having again. This is another cracker and the Revo's look just right.
