Nice work. I love the mk1 & mk2 Cortina. I've just spent 2 years welding a mk2 2 door GT but mines going back standard. The Honda sits in there really well. It'll be one quick car

Bookmarked. A mate had a gloss grey one with Dunlop period alloys, a low and fortied up 1600 engine. Corbeau buckets tickertape labels on the dash. Over cammed and carbed , but loved the induction noise. Really looking forward to find out where you go with this.

Amazing work, I will be following this build. I really like the new gauges that you have done.

great work , that is going to be really something! any plans for any gussets on the rear subframe though? to my wonky eye , the rear mount (to chassis rail) in particular looks like it could do with a little extra something.
